It explains why Buddhists chant and what they do when they meditate.

It also describes how they celebrate their great festival of Wesak.
Useful background information is provided in Notes for Teachers, and a simple glossary, index and list of sources of further information contribute to making this an ideal resource for Foundation Stage and KS1.
