Heavenly Hosts: Eucharistic Miracles for Kids (Catholic Stories for Kids)

The children in my First Holy Communion class looked forward to me reading a story each week. Like any second grader, they would have enjoyed more pictures, but liked hearing about the miracles. The drawings at the beginning of each story were well done. And I had only read a couple stories before I had to start teaching over “Zoom”. The fact that they were interested in being read to remotely is praise, I think. When I could, I corroborated the story with other information and gave them a few more facts and information about the time period. I was pleased enough with their reaction that I’m looking for similar books (hopefully with more pictures) about reconciliation. This is not a book for the 2nd graders to read by themselves - it is a good book to read to them - and engage in dialogue. Children are very receptive to hearing about miracles and this book helps them understand/believe in the Real Presence.

My 9 year old son is fascinated by Eucharistic miracles. And this book was perfect for him. It’s written in a way that’s very easy for him to understand and keeps his attention in the short stories. Every night he asks that I read to him from this book. He LOVES it, and that means a lot since he doesn’t like reading.

It truly is a have to own book, not just on kindle where i have it as well, but a paper book , and i have it sitting among my very valued books. Thanks for the quick delivery, i got it 6 days sooner than expected.

Excelente libro, necesario conocer todo esto

This was a perfect gift for my cousin's kid for his first communion. It shares the truth in a way they can understand. Even a great read for adults!

I was happy to find a book on Eucharistic miracles that I could give to my grandchildren. I don't think there is another out there like it. It is written simply enough for an eight-year-old to read to himself. The stories are brief, a few pages each, but complete. It covers quite a few stories. My only wish is that it came with some of the photos that I know exist of the miracles to underscore in the minds of the children that these are not fictional tales, but documented realities. Knowing a little about publishing, I am sure the author would have loved to include such photos, but it would drive the price up out of reach. At least with the internet, we can look up the miracles and promptly find such photos.

The kids and I love this book! Beautiful illustrations with inspiring stories. A little treasure for every Catholic home. I sent one as a gift to my godchildren. Great for bedtime reading. My boys, ages 12, 10, 7, and 4, all enjoyed the stories and begged me to read them every night. Will read them again and again!

The stories written about these eucharistic miracles are extremely engaging for kids and adults. I thoroughly enjoyed reading them and appreciated how tales I'd heard previously really 'came alive' in these stories. This book is terrific for encouraging wonder and appreciation for the power of our Eucharistic Lord.

Great stories for children

Beautiful real stories that will deepen the Faith and warm up lukewarm hearts. Great for re-reading over and over again.

Amazingly beautiful and inspiring! Perfect for children preparing for first Communion. Our daughter who is 10 says "short stories with characters you get to know and you feel like you are there!" God bless you Kathryn for this beautiful book.

A beautiful read for the whole family, but really nice when preparing a 7-year-old for First Holy Communion!

We read the stories at bedtime and the kids have favourites.
