The Holy Rosary

Well made. Great for the grandkids

I was inspired by another reviewer who spoke of "the sweetness and purity of the mysteries" as presented in this book. I loved the vintage innocence of the Fatima illustration on the front and definitely felt a need for simple "sweetness and purity" as opposed to weighty, theological considerations (which have their place!). Although this book will definitely work well with children, I think it works equally well for tired, discouraged adults. If you are feeling disappointed, dirty, a little corrupted around the edges, go back to the beginning. Keep it simple and pure. Take your downhearted self to the Lord in prayer, as guided by the simplicity of this profound little book and remember, Jesus came to this earth via the Virgin, to save just such a wounded soul as yours.

Perfect to have around for a young (or old) curious mind on how to do the rosary. Easy to read.

I love this booklet, the Artwork and so easy to read with large print. It's for our Monthly Rosary Event and everyone loves the sweetness and purity of the mysteries!

This picture book actually is a great buy because I teach kids at my church and most of them are visual learners and need pictures to help them do the Rosary.

I think the best thing about this book is the illustrations, which are very nice and large, taking slightly more than half of each page. Each Mystery has a whole page to itself, with a child-appropriate meditation at the top. For example, "Mary, my Mother, I love you as I see you telling the angel that you are ready to become the Mother of God because this is the Will of the Heavenly Father. Thank Jesus for wanting to become a child for love of me. Make me humble and obedient that I may always please God as you did." The first few pages give the historical background of the Rosary, including Saint Dominic, Lourdes, and Fatima. All the prayers are included, from The Sign of the Cross to the Hail, Holy Queen and Let us Pray (said at the end). With the clear instructions and simple diagrams, it is very easy for anyone to understand how to pray the Rosary by following this book.

Writing this partially to help balance out some of the poor reviews. Any inequality of the price vs the product has been fixed since those other reviews were posted. This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for. This version does include the luminous mysteries and thus is a tad thicker than what I had growing up but otherwise, I got what I was looking for. Would recommend this booklet to other parents wanting a colorful intro to the rosary without cheesy pictures for their kids.

It’s was gift to my niece. She loves it.

A wonderful little book in excellent condition. Suitable for young children learning about the Rosary for the first time and for adults who need a refresher. I use this book in Sunday School classes and the children love the pictures and love to follow the prayers on their own rosary beads.

enthält inspirierende Geschichten Und sehr bunt, obwohl nicht völlig abgeschlossen ist. Ermutige bitte ich alle um den Rosenkranz zu beten

Perfect little prayer book.

Here is a beautiful picture book for children.It is so pretty that it can delight even adults. It has made such a sweet way to learn the Rosary beads, never to be forgotten. From the cover to each page, the "old fashioned" illustration is charming. Certainly an attractive learning lesson, to be treasured. Thanks to St Joseph Picture Books!

Perfect book for a child and for adults on how to say the Rosary. Lovely illustrations and easy to read and understand. Highly recommended!
