Prepare for the coming of Christmas by walking through the Advent season with a Catholic family!

Advent and Christmas are holy seasons everywhere, but the Catholic children of Austria have an especially rich set of traditions to draw on. Let me take you inside this beautifully photographed book (and don’t forget to get this picture book too):

Another Advent book for your seasonal book collection:

Joan, Joe, Emmanuel, and Gianna are surprised when their parents suddenly begin bringing things into their home at the beginning of December. Evergreen branches, candles, and new foods keep appearing throughout the house. They are quickly told that this is part of “Advent” and that the family is preparing for the Christmas season. 

Join the kids as their family celebrates Advent as a time of prayerful waiting and expectation, full of fun traditions and treats! 

Excerpts from the Scripture readings for Advent and Christmas are keyed to the main text throughout the book, helping little ones make connections between the story and what they hear at Mass throughout Advent and the beginning of the Christmas season. 

Another important tradition to start this Advent–Advent Adventure!
