I don't have a children's book for today's post, but am instead posting about a book I'm reading. Some months ago Fr. Robert Barron released a DVD series of his Catholicism Project. Some of the parts were aired on TV, though not all 6 parts. I managed to record 3 of them, and haven't been able to get the other parts. As always, the videos are very well done: beautiful and informative.
On our last library trip, I was poking around in the religion section. I was actually looking for some C. S. Lewis, but then my eye stopped on Fr. Barron's name. As it turns out, there's also a book that is basically derived from the video transcripts! I was excited and so of course picked it up. I've not been disappointed, and I highly recommend the book. You needn't be a theologian to read it, thankfully , since I'm not one. I think Catholics and non-Catholics alike could get a lot from the book: Catholics to be reminded of the beauty of our faith and non-Catholics to learn more about how and what we believe.
we just did this study at our parish...the film is stunning and so beautiful! The whole class enjoyed it....and learned so much too. good luck!
