Jesus and the Miracle of the Mass

**2024 Catholic Media Association Book Awards First Place All Children's Books**

Look up to the altar,
And what do you see?
That small piece of bread
In the priest's hands is me!

My child, I am Jesus,
And I love you so.
I have a great story
I'd like you to know.

With beautiful illustrations and memorable rhyme, this book introduces children to the miracle that occurs at every Mass -- the bread and wine on the altar transformed into the real presence of Jesus. Told from the unique and intimate perspective of Jesus himself, the story explains the incredible gift that the Eucharist is for us.

Jesus and the Miracle of the Mass will draw children and adults alike into Jesus' heart and spark a love and desire for the Eucharist.
