What begins with the coming of the Infant Jesus ends at the foot of His Cross—and along the way, Marion Ames Taggart leads little children gently into the heart of their Catholic Faith.
These four beautifully illustrated books form a natural progression. The Wonder Story introduces children to the Infant Jesus and invites them to know and love Him. The Wonder Days follows His hidden childhood at Nazareth, where His prayer, work and obedience become a pattern for their own lives. The Wonder Gifts introduces Confession, Holy Communion and Confirmation as gifts through which Our Lord gives us His grace. And in The Wonder Offering, the life and Sacrifice of Christ unfold alongside the Holy Mass, helping children understand what they see at the altar and how they can unite their own offering with His.
Together, the four books lead a child from knowing and loving Jesus, to imitating Him, receiving His grace through the Sacraments, and entering more deeply into His Sacrifice at Mass. Throughout, Taggart's simple storytelling and beautiful full-color illustrations make the great realities of the Faith something even very young children can begin to understand, love and make their own.
Faithful to the original 1920s editions published by Benziger Brothers, each book is printed throughout on heavy 100 lb. cover stock, giving its large pages unusual substance and durability—perfect for little hands. We have lovingly restored the original illustrations and design so that a new generation of children can enjoy these beautiful books much as their first readers did.
