Description
“Christians, Jews, and Muslims all pray and so do Hindus and Buddhists. Many others pray too…” So begins Everyone Prays, a bright and colorful concept book for children ages 4-8, celebrating the diverse ways that people pray. In a vibrant yet accessible manner, young readers are transported on a visual tour across the globe. They will discover the Native American sun dance ceremony, visit the sacred sites in Jerusalem, behold the Shinto shrines in Japan, watch Maasai dances in Kenya, see pilgrimages to the river Ganges in India, and much, much more.
With an appendix to help answer questions children might have, Everyone Prays offers young hearts and minds a chance to learn that although people from other places and cultures may seem different, we all share the diverse world of faith and prayer. And what a bright and beautiful world it is!
A Note From the Publisher

Advance Praise
“Celebrating the act of prayer through multicolored panels depicting people from a wide array of religions, this vivid book is a primer for diversity and tolerance. Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, among others, are portrayed through bright and thoughtful illustrations that illuminate the commonalities between religions in a manner accessible to children. The notes at the back of the book offer definitions for more advanced readers.” — Foreword Reviews.
