Interesting Series to understand and learn tolerance

The book is all about Islam, with pertinent issues analyzed, in the words of the publihser: "This book takes an exciting look at the religion of Islam and answers the above questions through thoroughly researched information, beautiful color photographs, and wonderfully detailed illustrations. It helps young people ask questions and leads them to a better understanding of the people and beliefs of Islam."

One of an Outstanding Series

I used this book, as well as "What Do We Know About Judaism" and "What Do We Know About Christianity", as part of an introductory elementary homeschool course in world religion and culture. All three were excellent, covering a lot of ground with clear text and interesting photographs and line drawing illustrations. Today I ordered the ones on Hinduism and Buddhism for next year -- despite the hardback/library binding cost. Both my student and I learned a lot, enjoyably!
