Project Children’s book

A children's book about a Eucharistic miracle!

We are in the process of writing a children’s book about ‘the Eucharistic miracle with the fish’.

Purpose and target group

This book is especially for children who will soon receive their First Holy Communion. It is different from other Catholic children’s books because we focus on children who do not inherit the faith so strongly from home, but are receiving their First Holy Communion. To reach these children, we use a simple writing style and involve animals in the story.
