Good memento for my daughter’s First Eucharist
It has beautiful illustrations, prayers, and stories. I love that it has pages to record information about the event and places to add photographs. Made a great gift for the occasion!

Makes an excellent personal gift for First Communion.
Beyond my expectation! Every page has an illustration. Pages are glossy, binding is strong. In the pages you will find a “welcome” letter from Jesus, bibilcal stories appropriate for children, and every prayer a child should know. There is plenty of pages for personalization with areas to paste photos from your child’s special (communion) day, a page to document guests, and guided questions for the communicant to record memories of their first steps towards a life long friendship with christ. WONDERFUL THOUGHTFUL gift for your son/daughter or godchild. I gave it to my daughter during her first communion brunch, and later at night before bed we read it together – she loved the special welcome (into God’ famiy of love) letter at the beginning of the book. I plan on buying more in the future as a gift.

GREAT BOOK, EASILY EXPLAINS FOR A 7 YEAR OLD TO UNDERSTAND!!!
My grandson made his First Holy Communion!!! This book was part of his gift. Baptism is a very celebrated sacrament in our family!!! The book explains many bible stories and the meaning for young people to understand!!! I read it and I’ve been Catholic for 74 years, I found it informative and I even learned a couple things I didn’t know before!!! I’m buying 4 more for my grandchildren that will be making their First Holy Communion in the coming years!!! It’s that good that I don’t think they can offer anything better for them to understand and appreciate!!! Thank you for a great read!!!

We use it more as a keepsake than an everyday book.
We bought three of these so we could make a book for each of our kids for their first communion. We use it more as a keepsake than an everyday book. You can put in pictures and other mementous in them for them to look at for years to come. It also has payers and stories from the Bible in it. I am glad that we bought three of them so each child can look back at their special day and remember all that they did.

A beautiful book in our Catholic tradition.
As some of the other reviews have noted, this is an absolutely beautiful book. The illustrations are absolutely lovely, and the accompanying text explains the sacrament of the Eucharist in beautifully simplistic terms that a young child can understand. When purchasing a religious book for myself or others, I always check to make sure that it has been published by a Catholic publisher, and Word Among Us press is. I purchased this book as a first communion gift for a friend’s son, and I will be giving it to him this Sunday. I feel confident that they will love the book as much as I do.

Unique Gift
This was a great gift idea. It’s a lot like a baby memory book with lots of pages to be filled out to personalize it. Most unique idea for representing their first sacramental. My grandsons were anxious to read it & fill in the blanks. Very substantial book!

A very good book for children receiving Holy Communion for the first time with stories that they are able to read easily and prayers which they are able to learn quickly.I am very happy with the purchase for my granddaughter who will be receiving her First Holy Communion in a few days.It is a little expensive but it is exactly what I was looking for and I’m glad I found this book.It also has blank pages where the children can either draw or stick photographs which will hold memories as they grow older.

This is a beautiful book; well illustrated stories from the Bible and the simple prayers that a young child knows. As well as all this there are places for photographs taken on this very special day.Recomended for either a girl or boy.
