God chose Mary to be the mother of His Son, Jesus. Who was this special woman whom God created for such a great purpose? In Mary of Nazareth, children will follow Mary from her childhood days to the moment she heard the stunning announcement from the Angel Gabriel at the Annunciation. They will walk with her and Joseph to Bethlehem for the birth of the Messiah, and escape with the Holy Family into Egypt.
Together with Mary, children ages 5-9 will attend the wedding at Cana and weep when she meets Jesus to the way to Calvary. They will experience for themselves the resurrection, Pentecost, and Mary's marvelous apparitions throughout the ages.
The stories are beautifully illustrated by renowned religious artist, Michael Adams.
Book would make a great gift for First Communion or other special occasion.
