This lovely little book, written for children 5 to 8 years old, is a retelling of the laws given to Moses on Mt. Sinai--the laws that serve as a guide to worshiping God and treating others with justice, honesty and goodness.
Each commandment is stated, then retold in words a child can understand: "Remember the sabbath day and keep it holy." becomes "Enjoy the rhythm of the days: six for work and one for rest."
Accompanying each commandment are charming, vibrantly colored illustrations that make the text come alive for readers, both young and old.
The 10 Commandments makes an attractive and meaningful gift for all occasions, for young followers of both Judaism and Christianity. Parents, grandparents, religious education teachers, churches and synagogues will find it to be a welcome inspirational learning tool.
