Editorial Reviews

▼▲

Who is Jesus? This is an excellent book for parents, grandparents, and teachers who help children answer that question. Loretta Pehanich delves into Jesus’ teaching and his relationships with his family and disciples....She encourages children to use their imaginations and to be attentive to their feelings as they read and discuss her engaging stories. It’s a thoughtful, warm, and insightful introduction to Jesus, who loves children.
--Jim Manney, author of A Simple, Life-Changing Prayer

Long-time catechist Loretta Pehanich knows how to share the tenets of our Catholic faith in a way that speaks to children and adults alike. She knows, too, that kids often pick up on small, seemingly mundane details that their parents might miss. In Loyola Kids Book of Jesus, His Family, and His Friends, Pehanich manages to make every detail count, weaving tight prose that radiates with countless spiritual insights—and giving families much to reflect on after each page. Those seemingly mundane details open up conversations of depth, inviting families into the storied richness of our faith.
-Eric A. Clayton, author of My Life with the Jedi and Cannonball Moments
