What a beautiful book! Do you imagine teaching the catechism to your children through stories and illustrations? This is the book to use.

The Adoremus Hymnal

Book cover: 'The Adoremus Hymnal'
Author(s): 
Hellen Hull Hitchcock (Editor)

This is a beautiful hymnal with all the favorite traditional Catholic hymns and the parts and prayers of the Mass in English and Latin. It avoids any use of "feminized" (a.k.a. inclusive) language, which has destroyed so many of the Church's beautiful hymns and even tried to remove the use of "he" or "him" when referring to Jesus. Our family has taken to pulling out this hymnal every morning after prayers and each person picking out their favorite song to sing together before beginning the school day.
