Leviticus is replete with important life lessons for children, ranging from not bearing grudges to being truthful in business. From the responsibility to care for the poor to the obligation to strive to be ""holy,"" we find everyday aspects of one's life (as opposed to limiting this to rituals and religious celebrations).

It can and ought to be taught (in an age-appropriate manner) to young children, and that is what this book strives to do.
