For the Children: Life Lessons From Pope John Paul Ii: Life Lessons From Pope John Paul Ii

This collection of quotes from Pope John Paul II is a testimonial to his love and respect for the children of the world. Each page offers a stirring, inspirational message that speaks to important Catholic themes in childhood, such as “Family,” “School,” “Prayer,” “Suffering,” “Peace,” and “My First Communion.” Alongside each quote there is an exquisite color photograph of a child or group of children that embodies the theme.

Under the opening heading “Greeting,” Pope John Paul offered these words in an address to a crowd of 10,000 children at Vatican City: “The Pope wishes well to everyone, but he has a preference for the youngest, because they had a special place in the heart of Christ, who wished to remain with the children and to talk with the young. He addressed his call to the young especially, and John, the youngest apostle, was his favorite.” What child would not feel honored and captivated by such a respectful invitation? This is an excellent gift book for Catholic children, who will certainly beam with pride, prayer, and purpose upon reading this loving tribute. –Gail Hudson
