- Description
Prepare for the coming of Christmas by walking through the Advent season with a Catholic family!
Joan, Joe, Emmanuel, and Gianna are surprised when their parents suddenly begin bringing things into their home at the beginning of December. Evergreen branches, candles, and new foods keep appearing throughout the house. They are quickly told that this is part of "Advent" and that the family is preparing for the Christmas season.
The four children have a lot of questions about Advent. Join the kids as their family celebrates Advent as a time of prayerful waiting and expectation, full of fun traditions and treats!
Excerpts from the Scripture readings for Advent and Christmas are keyed to the main text throughout the book, helping little ones make connections between the story and what they hear at Mass throughout the Advent and beginning of the Christmas seasons.
When you’re done reading, you can bless your Advent wreath using the blessing at the back of the book.

from 5960 reviewsI highly recommend buying this book for families who have lost a baby through miscarriage. It gives a great explanation on something that is hard to explain to children.
It's a tale of a BEAUTIFUL journey to God - a real solace even after 46 years' loss. ♥️
This case is perfect! I love it.
Perfect book for my 8yr old grandson who is baptized Catholic but not being brought up in a practicing home. It’s a perfect way to introduce him to a young saint.
My granddaughter was born on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe so I’m always looking for things to help her grow in her devotion. She is 8yrs old and the book is perfect for her
Fit perfect and looked great!
Nicer and more detailed than I imagined. Kids of various ages will enjoy learning about this saint as they color the pictures.
The prayers cards so wonderful, thank you so much for your brilliant work! We might be ordering more.... God bless you always!
Great case! Beautiful image, useful message for first responders, easily visible, and very protective if you do drop your phone.
Love it! Nice, sturdy and beautiful!
Would have wanted a bit more information about Our Lady of Champion.
Love these!
We used the summer faith adventure for a three half-day VBS program at our parish. The material was easy to incorporate into our program.
It would be really great if the early access included a digital download or a DVD option for the videos. Thanks!
Fabulous content...The title says it ALL - perfectly true.
I bought 2 copies for 2 of my grandkids who are heading to college in Aug. I read most of the book and thought it was great -- just basic god ideas!!!!!!!
Love this book for teaching kids about the advent season. So beautiful and I know my children will love it this year and many more to come!
We love this book! Beautiful pictures and truly added to our advent season! Thank you so much!
My neice loved it
I bought this book as an Advent gift for my four-year-old. He LOVES this book, and he wants us to read it to him over and over. We already do a home Advent wreath and Jesse Tree, so it was refreshing to read about another family doing the same things. He even called me out on the fact that the family in the book has a white candle in the middle of their Advent wreath and ours doesn't! One of my favorite illustrations was the last page - on Christmas morning, there is only one thing under the tree. Not piles of presents but a simple Nativity set. The true gift of Christmas. Very well done book!
What a lovely book. So well put together and a great way to explain what Advent is all about!
