I had the honor of reviewing this book for Catholic Mom.com This is a rich and beautiful book in so many ways. I wish I’d had a book like this many years ago, when my children were still at home. Immediately after completing my review, I ordered two more copies. I want each of my daughters to have this book handy to use in their own homes, with their young families. I know they will all love and appreciate this book. Their faith celebrations will be better informed and more purposeful than mine ever were!
