This review is from: Desiderata: A Teenager's Journey to God (Paperback)

I read this book in one day, as I could not put it down! Okay, so I was previewing it as a possible supplemnet to our Confirmation class and had a deadline to finish it by, but still, it is really that good! Everything in it is orthodox, so no worries there. And it includes so much about our faith! Stories about Christ, references to scripture, the lives of saints and lining Catholics, all of whose stories are fascinating and inspiring to young Catholics, how people sruggle with and live out their faith, everything! I highly recommend this book for all teenagers, as well as to adults. It is very well written, will not bore you, and holds so much helpful informtaion! A+
