The Christmas Story
A Colouring Workbook designed to teach little children about the Christmas story and help them to recognise the names of objects, people and events they will encounter at this time.
Book Two in the “Suffer Little Children” Series.
This book is a combination colouring and workbook designed to introduce children to the Christmas Faith Story and make them aware that Christmas is not just about decorations, lights and presents.
In this book, as in our previous ‘Words’ book, the emphasis is on creating an association between the words and the pictures of people and events. Encouraging children to paste pictures into the book allows them to personalise the book with pictures they like and relate to.
Michael Mahony –
Frank Nunan has, over the past ten years, published (some authored by himself) over 100 new books in the domain of Catholic topics. Now, in the second book of his new “Suffer Little Children” series, he and his wife Sylvia have produced a book particularly aimed at the 7-12+ year old level. The format continues the innovative features of Book One in the series (“My first Book of Catholic Words”) where the activities proposed extend well beyond the traditional colouring-in book format, and include quoted texts from the Scriptures (appropriate to the readers’ age range), together with Word Puzzles provided within the book which encourage family engagement with the children in the family and in the local parish. An example of the tone of the book is reflected in the a teaser around the word “Sinterklaas”! Who can guess first what it is referring to I wonder?
