Book Description

Fascinating stories and whimsical illustrations delight children as they discover the basics of the Catholic Church! Here are:

• The great people and events of the Bible

• The life and message of Jesus

• The history of the early Church

• The stories of the saints

• Fundamental Catholic beliefs and practices

• And more

This child-friendly resource is the ideal read-aloud text for preschool through second-grade. It's one that "I-can-read-it-myself!" third- and fourth-graders will love.

The format is similar to a storybook, with information presented in a topical style, rather than alphabetically. Whether they're listening or reading, youngsters will keep an eye out for "Icthus," the friendly fish who acts as their guide all through the book.

Parents, grandparents, and godparents: This is a perfect First Holy Communion, Christmas, or birthday gift. Librarians, catechists, classroom and homeschool teachers: This is the solid, Catholic — entertaining! — resource you've been looking for.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2007-05-28

This book goes into just the detail that a First Communicant can digest to understand about our faith. Our market is saturated with Old Testament stories for little ones. This book, instead, focuses on Jesus' life and beyond. It even explains the Reformation from a Catholic perspective.

5 out of 5 stars This encyclopedia fills a real need.......2007-02-07

I bought this book for two very different purposes and feel that it is very suitable for each one. It works well in my Catholic school library (K-8) because it covers a range of basic topics, bible stories, sacraments, etc. I also sent it to my son for his small children so that he has a book on hand when they are old enough to need an overview of our faith. The illustrations are attractive and the writing clear and not too difficult.
