This is the latest in this series aimed at young Anglicans. The
previous ones have included "What We Do In Church" and "What We Do
In Advent".The idea behind the series is that it teaches families
about aspects of the faith. The key word here is "families",
because although the books themselves are clearly for children, and
4-7 years old at that, they actually have something to teach the
whole family and there are Parent Pages that contain background
information and advice for parenting in the pews (and let's be
honest, some parents really need to learn this!).Although these
books are written by Episcopalians, they are more than suitable for
any denomination that uses the liturgical calendar.Illustrated
throughout, and with mazes, crosswords, join the dots and more,
this is a fun way to teach children about what is traditionally a
solemn season.
