- Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2019My son is 6 and he really likes this book. His sister was gifted a mass journal but it really is too old for her. We wanted something appropriate for his age so I chose this one. I cut out all the pages it suggests and I used big packing tape to 'laminate' the pieces. Then I bought some little Velcro circles and I used those to attach the pieces to each page. This seems to be working out great. And he loves it! He loves to follow along during mass. It's fun. There's a page that says 'can you spot this' and I'm trying to decide how to make that more interactive and reusable. We are having a lot of fun with this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2019I was so excited when I saw this book because I was searching for something to help my six year old connect more while at Mass. It's great for my independent reader to have all the prayers at her finger tips instead of trying to search for them in the big books. I love how it is a little interactive too and that you can cut out the images in the back of the book to laminate for endless use.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2020I can’t say enough good things about this book. The second edition of this book is coming out in December 2020 according to the author’s website. The pictureA are colorful and bold and simple. It’s very appropriate for my 5 and a half year old. He’s learning sight words so we started picking the work God out of the book as he saw it. He loved be able to know which part of the mass we were in and which parts remain. He loved finding different objects in church and matching them to the pictures in the book. It was a game changer for my son. He said it was fun and it was the best he has done since we started streaming mass for COVID and probably better than he ever did in person. Highly recommend.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2019This book is just perfect for my boys (4 and 6 years old)! It has made Mass so much more interesting for them! I laminated the interactive parts and attached them with Command Strip Velcro. My boys are always pointing it what color vestment the priest is wearing within the first couple minutes of Mass. Having the prayers is so helpful for my 6 yo who reads very well. I can't thank this author enough and highly recommend it!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2019I turned this book into a little project. The other reviews are correct...the paper pages are a bummer. I cut the spine off the book, laminated and hole punched the pages, and put them in a 3 ring binder. It's awesome now! The content itself is great for my 4 year old and exactly what I wanted. Would just be nice if it was more robust upon arrival!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2019My 4&5 year olds love this. They love to match the Priest's garments and lets them be more involved with following the mass.
I did use self laminate for the cut out, double sided tape and packing tape for on the book. Plus I love that the book comes with extra cut outs.

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2018I absolutely love this book! It is a wonderful way for young Catholic children to understand and follow along with the mass. My four year old loves the interactive pages and the “eye spy” page. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone taking young children to mass. If I could make one suggestion I would love a hard back version of this book. I can see ours getting bent up quickly hauling it back and forth to church every week.

5.0 out of 5 stars My granddaughter loves this and uses it regularly.
This book is well written, and helps to keep my granddaughters interest during Mass. The interactive features are a useful bonus.
- KayReviewed in Canada on November 27, 2018
5.0 out of 5 stars Children loved it!
This is a very engaging Mass book for the pre-school/starting school crowd. If you direct them to the right page they can pretend that they are "reading" by following the responses that they and everyone else is saying. My kids interacted a lot more with the Mass as a result. Have to get another one so each child can have their own!
- KaReviewed in Canada on November 8, 2018
3.0 out of 5 stars Great but could be better
It is a great book but does not cover through the whole mass and it uses a different version of prayer than the one our mass is using. ( we live in Canada)
