This book looks at how people form the Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths welcome a new-born baby
into the world, including naming ceremonies, casting horoscopes, giving gifts, and saying special prayers and blessings.
You can find out about some very special birthdays, how a Sikh baby's name is chosen from the sacred text; why a Muslim
baby's hair is shaven off,  why a Jewish father pays five shekels to the synagogue, and much more.
