✨Thank God for Mass! by Sue Ellis✨
'An interactive book to help children understand the Roman Catholic Christian Mass.

Have you ever thought…
‘Why do children wiggle, wriggle, giggle and get bored at Mass?’
‘Why can’t they sit and listen like the adults?’
It’s because they don’t know what is happening!

At last, a book which teaches children about each section of the Roman Catholic Mass and enthuses about the love of God and the positive impact our faith can have on each one of us! This book asks children to look at and listen to each section of Mass and interact with what is happening. Children and adults will feel involved and motivated to enjoy Mass. There are activities for children to do and a chart for them to track their progress to become a Mass Expert! Whether you are a parent, family member, teacher or catechist, you will really enjoy joining the children on their spiritual journey using this book!'

✨ Green heart by Brinley Price✨
'These poems celebrate St Nicks Nature Reserve and Environment Centre and much imagery is drawn from Ecotherapy sessions over the course of several years. Many of the poems testify to the power of nature to lift our spirits and grant us inner peace and all of them involve observation of wildlife.
Some poems are composed in traditional poetic forms, others are written in ways that are more organic (like the wildlife that inspired them). Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to St Nicks to help it in its valuable work of improving mental health and wellbeing, as well as conservation and environmental awareness, and to which I am most grateful for the calm, joy and pleasure it has given me.'
