This book is for anyone needing to know more about the Lent/Eastertide Season in the Church. Many things in this book are not just for catholic readers. I found this book to be very resourceful, educational, and increased the comfort level of my faith.

I highly recommend all three books written by this knowledgeable and creative couple! This volume is no exception. Each project and activity is applicable to the holiday and to various age levels and the spirit of the book is truly in line with the teachings of the Church. A must on every Catholic (or Christian!) parent's or grandparent's shelf.
