I found a lovely picture book at the library today ... Father and Son, by Geraldine McCaughrean, about the relationship between St.Joseph and Jesus. I have posted a review on my blog here

Cay, I think this may be worth looking at for Catholic Mosaic.

Oh, good. I know Cay and Gwen have mentioned it on the boards. I have it my cart waiting for other reviews.

Would you think it's good for St. Joseph's feast days?

Thanks Kathryn for posting this -- I really love the way Geraldine McCaughrean writes! Unfortunately our library doesn't have it .... but I will track it down!

But since we're starting ancient history, she does have some rather nice books that my library does have !

It looks beautiful. I just checked our library, and it's there.

Gwen has blessed us with a study guide for it which will be in the upcoming Christmas Mosiac this autumn.

How did I miss that?

Cay, nice to know I am on the right lines, even if I am late .

And Jenn, yes I do think it would be good for St. Joseph feast days. It isn't just a Nativity book.
