Customer Reviews

Best book I've ever found.

Hands down, this book was the most well written I have ever come across for young people. Even though it suggests the best ages of readers is 4 to 8, I have no problem reading it to my 8th grade Catechism class as well. Our younger generation is no longer satisfied with having "blind faith". They want more explanations in terms they can understand. I initially ordered this book for my young niece and nephew, but I will order more and plan to have them on hand all the time. After seeing this one, I will also be ordering the complete collection. God Bless you, Elizabeth Ficocelli and Anne Catharine Blake!

Great for all ages

I loved it at first sight, and my granddaughter expressed the same sentiments. One must be a child at heart, I guess, and this book was refreshing to me as a grandparent. It makes the point without beating anyone over the head.
