"All About Advent & Christmas is as informative as it is enjoyable to read. These pages serve as a helpful reminder of the familiar Advent customs we love while also introducing readers to ancient customs, saints and prayers they may not have known about before (the chapter on the "O Antiphons" is my favorite!). From cover to cover, so much effort went into creating this book: both the engaging text and colorful images harmoniously work together to create a thorough and appealing explanation of these much beloved liturgical seasons. There's no doubt that having this book in hand will bless your family with Christmas cheer any time you need it— no matter what day, month or liturgical season of the year."

“All About Advent is a great book that shares the history and traditions of the season of Advent with all of God’s children. Miss Bogner touches upon the themes of Advent along with the major figures or saints of the season, which all point us to the Light in the Darkness, the Lamb of God, the Messiah who has come to save us, Our Lord Jesus Christ. As the secular world seems to rush to Christmas for a day, All About Advent will help all God’s children to better understand how we are called to prepare for the coming of the Messiah at Christmas!”
