A Buddhist Temple in Community Life

Sarah Shey’s introduction to Buddhist temples connects a place of worship with the community activities held there. The book describes how temples vary in size and appearance while serving as settings for prayer, blessings, holy days, and celebrations. Its framing gives young readers an entry point into Buddhism through both religious practice and gathering with others, with an included activity to extend the learning.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 beginning to learn about Buddhism and religious places
  • Young readers exploring how communities gather for worship and celebrations
  • Adults seeking an introductory nonfiction book to share with children

Book overview

Buddhism is the fourth-largest religion in the world, and the people who follow it are called Buddhists. Buddhists pray at home or at temples. Temples can be small and plain or large and elaborate. But all are places for peace. Temples bring people closer to Buddha and to each other. People gather for blessings, holy days, and celebrations. An activity is included to help kids extend their learning.
