Like CliffsNotes, for Religions

spider.jpgGranta Publishing’s “What Do We Believe?” series attempts to explain various religions in 100 pages or less. So far, they run the gamut from Christians to Pagans (with Hindus and Catholics soon to come.)

Says editor George Miller, who conceived of the series:

From the start, the brief to the authors was to explain rather than seek to convert. We told them that we didn’t want neatly packaged solutions to difficult issues where none existed.

This sounds like a great way to teach kids about world religions. The books are published by Walker & Company in North America and some at least seem to be available on Amazon.

Read a little more about these books here on the British publisher’s website.
