5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for youths!, May 31, 1999

By	[e-mail] (USA) - See all my reviews

I agree with all of the reviews saying that this is an excellent resource for our youth. But I have to tell you that it was an excellent resource for ME at 45 years old. I loved having answers that I could not only understand, but could remember long enough to share with others! Now I don't have to just "take it on faith", I can actually get it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Catholic teen book ever!, March 8, 2000

By A Customer

I recommend this book to all teens, parents, youth workers, and also to adults who want their valid questions answered about the Catholic faith. Mr. Pinto has accurately answered 200 top questions from actual teens in an engaging and compelling manner. The answers are brief and clear....just what teens are looking for. If you care about teens and the Church, you'll put this book in their hands.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best book for teens with questions on the Catholic Church., July 14, 1998

By	Edward Peters (Ann Arbor MI) - See all my reviews

Teenagers ask tough questions, and then they want short answers. Matt Pinto, not so long out of his own teenage years, delivers. This is the book I recommend be put in the hands of any teen who wants to know in brief terms what the Catholic Church is, why it believes what it believes and why it does what it does, and what difference it all makes to folks like you and me. I recommend the book strongly, and suggest it as an excellent gift idea for parents, grandparents, and Confirmation sponsors. END
