This was a required reading over the summer for my high schooler's English class. Anyone need it? I haven't read it so no review.


Family Prayer for Family Times: Traditions, Celebrations, and Rituals
Review Date: 4/16/2016


Great book for helping you "live" your faith throughout
your life with family/kids in 3 categories. Has simple uplifting prayers (basic) but also for daily events as before a sporting game, leaving house, meals, before school, etc. Rituals section includes getting engaged, forgiveness, welcoming a new baby. The Special times of the year section has Christmas season, Holy Week, Valentine's Day, 4th of July, etc. Light spiritual reading and also reference on basic prayers.

If your looking to add lovebirds into your life this is a great resource book or a great teaching book for younger children on the care of birds as pets. A great number of colorful chose-up photos with easy to read larger print. This book gives a history of the species, explains the different types, pet care/health, living accommodations and much more. A wonderful looking book.

Prayers, Activities, Celebrations (And More for Catholic Families)
Review Date: 4/11/2014


This is a go-to book for parents who want to include
God's loving message in their children's daily lives using activities(the love basket), crafts(thank you placemats), games, etc. It explaines how to communicate more effectively with your children, how to set examples they will follow (ex: sharing with poor/needy; volunteering at soup kitchen) and how to use prayer at special family occasions (birthdays). It includes an appendix with 14 basic prayers (Lord's Prayer, Glory Be, Grace before and after meals, the Rosary, etc). An easy to read,fun and helpful book.
