One World, Many Beliefs: A Family Book for Nonbelievers & Their Children – Kelly Mochel |
Kelly’s Mochel’s One World, Many Beliefs is a colourful and engaging book that was written to help initiate dialogue between parents and children, as the latter gradually starts to make sense of the wide array of religious beliefs or nonbelief that exists around them. The protagonist of the book narrates and guides children through a short introduction on three world religions, the idea of afterlife as well as her parents’ lack of belief and inclination towards atheism. The takeaway message of Mochel’s book is neither belief nor nonbelief should be inherited. Instead, every person should dedicate time in educating themselves and thereafter form an opinion on either lifestyle, while respecting another person’s take on the same subject.
Not only is One World, Many Beliefs a great stepping-stone for children to learn about Islam, Buddhism and Christianity but also about atheism. The author of the book makes a conscious effort to avoid any kind of negativity while presenting the three different religions, bearing in mind many of her readers are children with young, malleable and influential minds.
So come along with Mochel on this journey and help your child learn in the least biased way possible, all he or she can about faith, as different people know it in this world today.
