The Faith Club: A Muslim, A Christian, A Jew-- Three Women Search for Understanding by Ranya Idliby, Suzanne Oliver, Priscilla Warner

Informative, Interesting, Insightful

One Voice

The book was supposed to be written from three different points of view, yet they all had the same voice. The book is a great concept, but they launched the book prematurely. None of the three women knew much about their own faiths, so it is difficult to imagine them writing a childrens book together. Great idea - poor follow-through.
