The Lion book of best-loved prayers - Mary Joslin

The special feature and appeal of this volume is that it is designed to be an appealing gift for a child up to the age of 12. The selection of prayers is both simple and profound enough to be useful to turn to all through life. It is thematically arranged for ease of use. It contains themes such as morning prayers, evening prayers, thanksgiving and prayers for the Christian festivals. The selection includes many prayers from classic sources including the Bible, liturgies, prayers of the saints - using clear, modern language where the source allows such treatment. Modern or new prayers are also included to ensure that the classic themes are fully and appropriately dealt with.
