Love this children's version of the Stations of the Cross. I like the little prayers after the simple explanation of each station. The illustrations are beautiful.

Great kids adaptation of the Stations. Simple but not watered down. Held the attention of my toddlers up to my 11 y.o. Going to make this our annual Good Friday read.
