The
very youngest children, ages one through five, will delight in this
book about Jesus that places him within the context of the Holy
Family. This board book completes the trilogy by Sr. Marlyn Monge,
FSP, that began with Mary,
Mother of Jesus and continued with Joseph,
Guardian of the Holy Family. It teaches very young
children the importance of recognizing Christ's humanity, bestowed by
his mother and protected by his foster father.
Adults can
help small children develop a loving and trusting relationship with
Jesus through storytelling, and Jesus,
Savior of the Worldis a great place to start. It takes
children through Jesus' birth in Bethlehem to His death and
resurrection from the dead.
This
compelling story will draw children closer to the Holy Family and
especially the Lord Jesus, helping them grow in the faith as they
grow in life.
