Josiah and Julia Go to Church: A Young Child’s Guide to Church Etiquette

by Kelly Ramke Lardin, Sheena Hisiro (Illustrator)

Josiah and Julia love to go to church. They love to venerate the icons, light candles, and eat the blessed bread. Sometimes they behave very well—but sometimes they make mistakes. Little ones can follow Josiah and Julia through the Liturgy and learn how even the youngest child can honor God by behaving properly in church.

I love this book so much that I bought 5 copies for our church's 'cry room'! This beautiful little board book follows sweet siblings into an Orthodox church, where they light candles, venerate icons, say prayers and participate in the divine liturgy -- sometimes with grace and gusto, and sometimes with comic results. My own children have loved this book dearly, and we have given it as a gift to godchildren and friends. It's an absolute gem.
