 Enriching Mar 01, 2000
By Stacie Lara
I thoroughly enjoyed this little book. It not only is clear and follows the Mass wonderfully, but it also enables my two children, ages 4 and 6, to become more engaged in Mass. I allow them to bring this book to Mass and follow along. It definitely is a plus for kids and parents too. I plan on ordering more to give to friends with small children. Keep in mind this is for very young children. (2-8)

An excellent resource for Children/Youth ages 3 - 6 Mar 21, 2011
By Corban Storm
We purchased this brief missal for my 3,4, and 5 year old children who had been struggling (or perhaps it was my wife and I 'struggling' at Mass. It has been EXCELLENT, in the fact that they follow along with the Mass from page to page, finding the book more interisting than poking and whispering to each other... it has actually become a source of positive reinforcement, as the frequently point to the pictures, whispering "is this where we are?" I should note that none of these children yet read, but the pictures still, for the most part, holds their attention. My 3 year old daughter sticks with it about 50% of the time, but that is about 1/2 more than anything before. In these first three months, the Mass has been very "active" for my wife and I as well help our children follow along, but I have already seen them begin to do it on their own (turning the page when the next "activity" in Mass takes place), so I hope that we will all soon be following the Mass more or less independently. But what is important, I feel, is that they are INTERESTED in following along, and are recognizing there is an order to the Mass, and each part has meaning.
It really helps that their gestures pictured (nice illustrations) are what the priest is actually doing up at the altar, which further assists following along. All the 'lay participation' depicted are actually children (giving the readings, for instance) so it does not actually reflect fully what takes place in our Church, but I have not found this to be an issue -- my children recognize that someone is supposed to be reading at that point.
I did not purchase this book from Amazon (I obtained several copies from The Catholic Company), so I am assuming the cost given here is for ten copies.
One note: This resource will be somewhat obsolete beginning with Advent 2011, as the updated (recaptured?) verbiage of the Mass is to be in place. This is not of major concern, as it is not the words at this point that are of issue to my children. I would expect (and hope) that a newer version of this Children's Missal will be out by then. Nonetheless, if you are considering this, I would not wait... as each Mass is of 'inestimable value', the greater participation your child is able to engage it the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is well worth the few dollars this cost.
If your child is of the ages 7 - 13, I would recommend The New Saint Joseph Children's Missal: An Easly Way of Participating at Mass for Boys and Girls

 Wrong price of the book Nov 17, 2008
By P. Becker
"Religious Education"
This book was returned to Amazon with no problem. The price they are charging for this book is $15 each. The true price is $1.50 each. Most companies charge 10 books for $15 which is what I thought I was purchasing.

A very good learning/teaching tool Oct 20, 2007
By D. Bartuska
"djbartu"
I am a second grade CCD teacher and purchased these books to use in class. They are well written and very informative. The children easily follow along and are quickly learning the Catholic Mass.

Perfect at Mass Sep 03, 2007
By T. Walters
"DRE"
Better than others like it in terms of appropriate illustrations. I keep these in a basket that is accessible to children at Mass. They return them to the basket at the end of Mass. It is excellent for teaching young ones how to follow along in a book that is age appropriate (unlike the adult missalette). I am re-ordering now, as they like them so well they take them home sometimes!
