Oracional bilinge: A Prayer Book for Spanish-English Communities (English and Spanish Edition)
by Jorge Perales, Therese U. Grisewood, Renee Domeier
Category: Juvenile Nonfiction

Modeled after the adult version of Oracional bilingüe: A Prayer Book for Spanish-English Communities, this volume for children encourages prayer across national, cultural, and linguistic borders. Oracional bilingüe para niños provides Spanish and English texts of the most loved and commonly used prayers in large, readable type and in an easy-to-follow, facing-page, parallel presentation. The English text appears on the left page, with the Spanish text directly across from it on the right. In addition, illustrations by well-known artist Gertrud Mueller Nelson complement each page and add to the multi-cultural appeal of this work. The prayers are organized in chapters: "Prayer Throughout the Day," "The Way of the Cross," "The Holy Rosary," "The Most Holy Eucharist," and "Reconciliation: Sacrament of Forgiveness."
