Recommended for home and parish library. While the text is the familiar King James version, the illustrations are wonderfully whimsical and contemporary. The artist captures Mary's pregnancy and delivery with delight, poignancy, humanity and great godliness. A wonderful vehicle for helping children get inside the great stories which have shaped the faithful for millennia. The author and illustrator seek to make the connection between everyday life and the meaning of Sunday worship.
Children come to learn the shape of the liturgy's ordo.
A beautiful and helpful book. Edited by Gabe Huck with art by Judy Jarrett. Crafted for Roman Catholic families and their children, this volume is designed for presentation to a young child. It contains a magnificent collection of prayers and blessings which will serve the child through life. Still and all, this little book is one of the finest prayer book for children around.
