Dressed in Peace: 1 (Ali-en's Adventures)

This wonderful tale follows Ali-en the alien across earth as he embarks upon various ceremonial dressed people who to him appear quite strange. As he explores and enquires further he comes to realise they all have a common goal and common feature. This wonderful picture book offers both non and early readers an introduction into different religious backgrounds and cultures. Unlike other books of this kind it does not alienate a reader who is not of nor share the experiences of the discussed religion; neither does it discourage or encourage religious preference. The rhyming pattern and repetitive theme provides enjoyment and encourages joining in by all making this book a fantastic teaching aid or personal entertainment.
