Thanks to Elizabeth, I ordered this book, and just received it. It is absolutely a true "treasure" indeed. It's "arranged with the virtues of the Rosary." It also has other spiritual topics. We'll definately be using this for copy work. The quotes aren't very long; some are only one line, which is great for the younger kids.
Thank you again, Elizabeth.
God bless you.

So glad to see another thumbs up for this- it is on the top of my Amazon wishlist. Does anyone have the other two books? I think one is quotes from Teresa of Avila, and I don't remember the other.

Ruth,
I'm so glad you like the book! The quotes in it are the same one used in the rosary cd I wrote about here.. I really love the way St. There's spirituality and the rosary are beautifully intertwined.

It's been my sole source of copywork lately, too Maria!

I was wondering about how to use it as copywork. Do you pass the book around to each of the kids, or do you copy it onto a board for all to see? Do you do have them copy the Joyful mysteries on Mondays, and so forth? I really have no idea how to use it, but the main reason I bought it was for copywork, and now I feel lost
It's such a beautiful little book. I love it!!!

I use Start Write and I type it into Start Write and print it out in the font suitable for each child.

I just received the Teresa of Avila Sermon in a Sentence - it's great as well (and also organized around the Rosary)
