Saint John Bosco: the friend of children and young people
Kathleen Pearce
Don Bosco was a man with a dream. His dream was to help poor children find happiness. He spent his life looking after them. This is the colourful story of this extraordinary man, from his humble origins in rural Italy, his struggles to complete his studies and become a priest. Wanting to help the street children he met in Turin, he built a school for these boys, and ultimately founded the Salesian family of brothers and sisters, still working throughout the world to educate young children and give them a brighter future. Watercolour illustrations by Augusta Curreli - we particularly liked Don Bosco playing football with the street children in his cassock!

Walk with Jesus as He shows us how very much He loves us. Follow Jesus through fourteen stations - fourteen moments - on His journey with the cross. Rejoice as He returns to His Father in heaven and redeems us from our sins. Recognize His great love for us in His willingness to suffer and die.With moving illustrations and real-life prayers, Stations of the Cross for Children helps children ages six through twelve reflect on Jesus' Passion and apply His courage and sacrifice to their lives.This beautiful, ancient devotion guides children to ask for God's strength and forgiveness, to praise and thank Jesus for giving His life for us, and, ultimately, to find great hope. Jesus, who was crucified and died, overcame death and is here with us now.

A Catholic Childs Picture Dictionary
Ruth Hannon
A Catholic child's "pictionary" of 240 inviting illustrations and 420 childlike definitions of all interesting Catholic persons, places, and things from "Abraham" to "Zeal" to which your child must be introduced. That introduction is better made earlier rather than later, especially with the help of Mum and Dad. A great resource for the early education of your Catholic child. Bite-sized definitions and charming pictures satisfy the most challenged attention spans. By ages eight or nine, they'll be reading it all by themselves. Originally published in 1956 by the Catechetical Guild Educational Society with Cardinal Spellman's imprimatur. We've built this to last forever with a big 8½" by 11" durable hardcover that will withstand rough treatment. A title which should become a family standard. A delightful gift!

Know Your Mass
Fr. Demetrius Manousos
Originally published by the Catechetical Guild in 1954 (Imprimatur Francis Cardinal Spellman), this is a "comic" book unlike any other. Know Your Mass is a detailed, fully illustrated, step by step explanation of the Traditional Latin Mass now reprinted for the first time in full color! The book presents the theology of the Mass in a manner easily understood by children and yet is very interesting and informative for adults as well, making this an excellent catechetical tool for all ages. All parts of the Holy Sacrifice are covered, from the preparation for Mass, the altar, sacred vessels and vestments, liturgical actions, the sanctuary, and some liturgical history as well, including helpful suggestions for children to get the most or should we say give the most at Mass.

Rosary Album: A VISUAL AND SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION ON THE ROSARY
Michael C. Buccino
A top favorite of young children and adults! Booklet includes over 200 original black and white illustrations (one for each bead!) by the late Mr. Michael Buccino. The artist began these drawings to help his children meditate more easily on the Rosary. "I came up with the idea that if they had a book with pictures it might keep their minds on meditating while they were praying and would be better able to concentrate on the Rosary. So I got started working on the Rosary Album, which took me 18 years to put together. The book has brought the rosary to life." There is a picture and scripture verse for each bead. The Litany of Our Lady (with illustrations) is also woven into each mystery. For all ages.

Jesus Make Me Worthy
Fr. R. C. Power, C.M.
Originally published in 1960, now reprinted in stunning full color. A prayer book for young Catholics in a language so simple that every child can understand, combining much useful instruction for Communion and Confirmation with a large selection of devotions and prayers. It is truly a beautiful little book. Ideal for First Holy Communions and Confirmations in the Old Rite, but suitable for any occasion (or no occasion). Everything a Catholic child must know about the practice of the Catholic Faith & spirituality -- all packed into 287 pages. Includes tons of prayers and over 90 illustrations (over half are in full color). An interesting feature: The missal section has 12 illustrations to help the child follow the main parts of the Traditional Latin Mass. The priest is shown in each, but the reredos behind the altar has a DIFFERENT image in each picture. The image on the reredos is from the life of Our Lord or the Apostles and reflects what the action of the priest represents. For example, at the Offertory, Our Lord is shown being scourged. At the Lavabo, Pilate is shown washing his hands. At the elevation, Our Lord is shown being lifted on the Cross. A thoughtful child, with a little instruction, could be lead to a profound understanding of the Mass from these details alone. 4" x 5", sewn, gold-embossed lexotone cover, BLACK COVER.
