House of Literature Bookmobile

This is the place I share book (movie) selections and reviews I have found worth mentioning. I'll also share gleanings of family life, faith, home education, and ongoing writing projects. Book selections will include children's books, books on home education, Catholic books, classics, series, raising children, and books that are made for reading under a shady oak tree with lemonade, in a bubble bath with a latte', or next to a snuggly fireplace with a cup of hot cocoa. Happy Reading!

Skipping to Day 12

We read The Lady of Guadalupe by Tomie dePaola today and recited the prayer. The kids are now sketching the image ala dePaola-style.

"Our Lady of Guadalupe, mystical rose, intercede for the Church, protect the Holy Father, help all who invoke you in their necessities. Since you are the ever Virgin Mary and Mother of the true God, obtain for us from your most holy Son the grace of a firm faith and sure hope amid the bitterness of life, as well as an ardent love and the precious gift of final perseverance. Amen."

This past Friday, Dec. 9th (Feast Day of Juan Diego), we were also able to view the CCC video Juan Diego: Messenger of Guadalupe at our co-op Christmas party.
