"... You will see a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden."
Bestselling author Anthony DeStefano begins his creative telling of the beloved Bible story of Christ's triumphant entry by introducing the young donkey who has yet to realize his important mission. The lowly creature believes he can do nothing noble, but that's before he meets the Master...
Then Jesus said to the donkey,
"It's time that you knew
About the great thing
That you're destined to do..."
He hears the sad donkey cry,
"Just leave me alone and cast me aside.
I'm just a poor donkey that no one can ride."
Richard Cowdrey's colorful illustrations pair beautifully with Anthony's charming rhymes. Together, they bring this timeless story of the donkey who carries Jesus into Jerusalem to a joyful finish. While especially appropriate as an Easter gift, this year-round story is for all time and for young and old alike.

One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by popular author Rev. Jude Winkler, OFM. Conv. introduces children to the story of Easter and the glory of Jesus' Resurrection in easily understandable terms. Among the features of this book are:
The Easter story is one of the most important parts of the Catholic faith because it tells us about Jesus' great love for us and how He saved us from our sins. For Catholic children, understanding the Easter story helps them see how much Jesus cares for them and how special His gift of eternal life is.
The Easter story begins with Holy Week, which includes Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, and Good Friday. On Palm Sunday, we remember how Jesus was welcomed into Jerusalem. Then, on Holy Thursday, we learn about the Last Supper, where Jesus gave us the gift of the Eucharist. Good Friday is a sad day because it's when Jesus was crucified and died on the cross to take away our sins. This shows just how much He loves us--He was willing to suffer and die for us. But the story doesn't end there! Three days later, on Easter Sunday, Jesus rose from the dead in the Resurrection. This is what makes Easter such a joyful celebration. Jesus' Resurrection means that death is not the end and that we can live forever with Him in heaven if we follow His teachings and live good lives.
For Catholic children, the Easter story is important because it teaches them about hope, love, and forgiveness. It reminds them that no matter how hard things get, Jesus is always with them, and His love is stronger than anything, even death. Easter is the celebration of new life in Jesus, and it fills our hearts with joy and faith in His promises.

At a time when the profound significance of Easter is often overshadowed by commercialism, The Story of the First Easter Bunny is a refreshing and heartwarming reminder of the true meaning of this most holy of Christian holidays.
Best-selling author Anthony DeStefano tells the tale of a pint-size bunny with enormous ears who seeks healing for his sick mother by searching for Jesus and listening to His words. The bunny shows courage and compassion on his selfless journey. When all seems dark and he is afraid, the bunny remembers Christ's words and takes refuge in God's promise by calmly waiting for the light.
After the bunny witnesses the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection, he and his mother experience a life-changing miracle, and the bunny goes on to spread the message of salvation to all who will listen. His inspiring example is a reminder to readers -- both the young and the young at heart -- that God's love is ever present and that when we trust Him with the confidence of a child, we find redemption, fulfillment, and lasting joy.
This instant classic, told in charming rhyming verse and wonderfully illustrated by New York Times best-selling artist Richard Cowdrey, adopts the Easter Bunny as a symbol of hope in the Risen Lord, of the transformative power of faith, and of the reality of Heaven. It offers an inspiring alternative to our culture's obsession with chocolate treats, dyed eggs, and cartoon characters of little substance.
The moving tale of this endearing bunny who refused to give up hope will fill your heart with a song of praise and be a favorite in your home, classroom, and church for years to come.
Award-winning TV personality Raymond Arroyo's evocative new book will take its place in the pantheon of classics for Christian children.
Majestically illustrated by Randy Gallegos, this inspiring story begins when the Holy Family is set upon by roadside thieves. Jesus is a young boy--and the lead bandit is the Bad Thief. His accomplice is a young man named Dismas, later the Good Thief.
Remembering his own mother and family, Dismas is moved with compassion and persuades the leader to let the Holy Family go. He does not change his ways, but while on the cross many years later, Dismas is caught in the entrancing gaze of the Blessed Mother from under his own cross. He suddenly realizes that the man suffering horribly next to him was the captivating boy on that fateful day long ago. He instantly asks Jesus for forgiveness--and knowing exactly who he is, Jesus forgives Dismas, assuring him of Paradise that very day!
