What You Will See Inside a Synagogue will:
- Satisfy kids' curiosity about what goes on in synagogues attended by
their friends, broadening awareness of other faiths at an important
age when opinions and prejudices can first form.

of their own religious tradition.

active participants.

descriptions of what is happening, the objects used, the clergy and
