Living Liturgy: Elementary Reflections;

The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a method of catechizing young children with respect for their natural awe, wonder, and hunger for spirituality. Its founder, Sofia Cavalletti, wrote this book to provide background at an adult level for catechists who work with children. In this book, she focuses on the elementary--the most basic--aspects of Christian liturgy: its history, symbols, meaning, and centeredness in Christ. Much attention is given to the universal language of liturgy, signs, and symbols, which children (and adults) can grasp with ease, depth, and joy. A wonderful resource for those who work with children, those involved with the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, and all of us who want to reflect on the liturgy as integral to who and what we are.
