Little Nellie was not yet four and a half when God took her to Heaven, but she had already made her First Holy Communion!
When the Holy Father, Pope St. Pius X heard the story of Little Nellie he cried: "There! That is the sign for which I was waiting!" He then went on to officially lower the age of 1st Communion.
Little Nellie is called the Little Violet of the Blessed Sacrament. Perfect to teach children love and reverence for Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist!

My son is making his Frst Communion this year, and it was such a joy to read this book with him! I love how they don't describe Nellie as a perfect angel, never having made a mistake. She was relatable to him, and he already wants to share this book with others! Highly recommended for other aged children as well!
The story of Little Nellie Organ is quite lovely! This edition is beautifully illustrated, and it’s content is very suitable for instruction for those studying to prepare for First Holy Communion. I will be using it with my Catechism class, along with a set of questions for oral comprehension that I have developed.
THis story fits in well to encourage 2nd graders about loving God and the Eucharist.
This sweet book was a gift for my daughter's First Communion. It is inspiring. The love little Nellie had for Holy God makes me want to be holier. My daughter loved the book. And I wish I could hug little Nellie!
Absolutely beautiful children's book. It brings back childhood memories for me.
This is a gift for my grandchildren. I have read about this holy little girl and I’m sure it will be wonderful!
