Quick little book that gives a brief overview of Hinduism. There is quite a lot of information packed into this book! Sample prayers, hymns, background on a few of the dieties, some holiday info and more. Includes 2 recipes and one craft that seem pretty simple and fun. I read this with my elementary school aged daughter, and she liked it. She especially liked that recipes were included. There is a web link in the back of the book for further info, but it does not work.
