5Easily explains what each part of the Catholic Mass means  Dec 19, 2009
I really like this book for describing what each part of the Catholic Mass means. It is not a follow along book for reciting the Mass prayers, but explains clearly what happens during the Mass and what each part means. I am giving this book to my two nephews for their First Communion next spring.

3Good not perfect orthodoxy  Jun 02, 2009
I was excited about this book as I heard about this and others on Al Kresta's show. Overall, it was well done and I'll use it, with changes. First, page 42 says 'we bow before we receive.' Speaking of communion here. Unfortunately, most folks don't know this but standing and bowing comes from people not following the church and finally asking the Vatican for a special privledge. Even when the church started in the early centuries, they quickly switched from receiving in the hand to receiving on the tongue and on the knees after realizing the error in their ways. Receiving in the hand is really done in very few contries and is an indult. This means it's a special privledge but not at all the norm. I know the USCCB says it's the norm of the US but since this is an indult, which usually means, we will allow this for a period of time, I do not believe the USCCB should have made it a norm by anymeans. Now it has become a sacred cow. I beleive that with study on the Eucharist, anyone will come to the realization that there is no way we should be standing in front of this special gift to us left on Holy Thursday. In fact, I use to be a lay minister and will never do that again as I think only a deacon or priest should touch the Eucharist. After some study, the awe of this sacrament has overwhelmed me and I hope and pray others will search out the same truth. It truly is Jesus. Even the angels can not receive Jesus in this way. We do not take communion we receive it as a gift and I wish all would realize the specialness of this sacred and spiritual food and we all should approach on our knees, as children. All bent their knee at the sound of his name, should we not bend our knee when he is truly present in front of us.

5If you take a child to church  Apr 21, 2009
get this book for him first! The Mass for Children so beautifully explains basic concepts of the Mass, as well as dos and don'ts to little children. The book educates and inspires children to do what they are supposed to do at Mass, and for that reason alone is worth the read.

4Pretty Good  Feb 11, 2009
This is a really cute book that explains the mass very well. I was only a little disappointed that it wasn't more step by step through the mass. I enjoy reading it to my kids before Mass but it is not a follow along with the mass kind of book. I am still looking for a great one of those. I had one when I was a little girl and it is falling apart so I can't give it to three kids to read during church.

3Not quite what I expected  Jan 08, 2009
The explanations were great but I would have expected a bit more of the actual mass for the children to follow along as a guideline. We hadn't looked at the book before taking it to mass so it was a little disappointing. We needed to use the missalette along with the book.
