Hardback. Condición: Very Good. It's Considerate to Be Literate about Religion is a book of poems and prose for all ages. The book introduces topics that otherwise may be unfamiliar, such as the difference between the religious and the secular, or between a devotional approach to practicing a religion and an academic approach to studying religion, or among all the various ways one can be religiously literate and religiously illiterate. The lyrical nature of the poems and the engaging pencil illustrations by Susan Detwiler give each topic the traction needed for deeper understanding and reflection. Each poem is also followed by an expansive Learn More section. In addition, a lively preface explains the joy of creating words, such as poemenclature; a helpful introduction welcomes readers to the concept of religious literacy; a fulsome glossary defines terms used in the book; and a section of suggested further reading offers a wide variety of sources for those who want to learn more.
