view Usborne Encyclopedia of World Religions, Internet-Linked  The world is made up of people with many different religions, and those beliefs dictate much of what happens on this earth.

The colorful graphics make it a pleasure to look through! What's more, every page has internet links where you can research more information. Paperback, 128 pages, for ages 10 to adult.
