5.0 out of 5 stars
St. Joseph picture books - highly recommended,
This review is from: St. Joseph Picture Books (Set of 26 Books) (Paperback)
My children (ages 7, 5, and 2) LOVE these books.
There are lots of books in the set, so they have plenty to share. They have learned so much from reading them with me and on their own. They love to look at the pretty pictures.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Great Teaching Tool!,

This review is from: St. Joseph Picture Books (Set of 26 Books) (Paperback)
I bought these books as a supplement to the religious education materials I have to teach Sunday school, and so far, the kids have liked them. Some of the wording is a bit over their heads (they are 4), but the pictures are priceless teaching tools. The majority of the books in the set have absolutely gorgeous pictures of the life of Christ, His Mother, various saints and angels and passages from scripture. When compared to the simplistic and often cheesy cartoon figures in their textbook, these highly detailed pictures really help draw them into the stories and keep them focused. The kids love to circle up and listen to a story, even if it is my own words set to the picture they are looking at.
One downside: the set contains a somewhat random collection of books. For example, out of the 11 or so saint's collection books, you receive about half, and not necessarily those in order. Also, you do NOT receive the books that are listed by Amazon as being contained in the set. You receive some, but not all, while other titles are substituted. All of them are good, but don't count on certain books being included. Overall, a great purchase.

Modern additions to a classic,

This review is from: St. Joseph Picture Books (Set of 26 Books) (Paperback)
This set only includes a few of the beloved and trusted earlier books. Most of the writing is fine, but the artwork...ugh! Spacey-eyed children and a gruffish Jesus is not what I expected from this series. The 5 older classics in the set are great, but we can do without the "hipper" version. My children make fun of the artwork instead of listening to or reading the stories. This was not the idea.
