  Synopsis Details Reviews  
How are names chosen for Sikh babies? What is krah prashad and why do Sikhs eat it? What does a granthi do? The children in this book visit a gurdwara to help them find out about Sikhism and what it means to be a Sikh. From the people they talk to and the objects they are shown, the children build up a picture of what Sikhs believe and how they worship. The book also includes a time-line showing the history of Sikhism and there are ideas for further activities. This innovative new series uses the evidence found in places of worship to provide an insight into the beliefs and practices of the major world religions.
