This book takes the shape of a tall apartment building, offering cutaway views on each page to show us the holidays, rituals, and traditions of three major monotheistic world religions over the course of a year: Judaism, Islam, and Christianity.

In the apartment building Babel Tower live three families with different beliefs: a Muslim family, a Jewish family, and a Christian family. On the ground floor, the atheist Mr. Felix runs a grocery store. In cutaway cross-sections of the apartments, readers get a glimpse of the families experiencing special moments throughout the year, as well as the major holidays of each religion and rituals related to birth, marriage, and death. Without trying to explain it all, this book uses simples words to get right to the heart of each religion. In an age when many use religion as a pretext for warmongering, this book points out the commonalities between religions and the importance of learning to live together.
