As a non believer (i lost my faith in my teens) I am struggling to answer my ds' questions with regards to religion. He is asking questions about the different religions and what they believe and why (yep tricky on to answer). Will put my hands up and slept my way through RE at school and have no clue about religions and their beliefs can anyone recommend some good kid friendly books I can tap to help ds in his commendable quest for understanding? All faiths welcome as at his rate of questioning we will probably get through them all.
TIA

I don't know if these are any good, I've linked to the Christian book, but below is listed others, like Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, Sikh:
