Review Summary: Excellent Intro to UUism
Date: 2008-05-26
Details: Finally, a book about the UU that explains what the UU Church is all about to kids! The book does not assume that the reader is a UU and explains what UUs believe and much of the history of the UU in a kid friendly way. Broken into short chapters it answers questions like "Who Are We?", "What Do We Believe?", "Do We Read the Bible?" and "What is our Religious Symbol?". This is the perfect book for young visitors and new members with children. Parts of the book can even be read for a children's reading during UU services. Unlike some books produced by the UUA this one has color pictures as well. This is a must have for every UU congregation and UU family.
