This book has the colour illustration, textual simplicity and styling to appeal to children around the age of 7 - and all the charm and respectfulness to appeal to the adult buying the book. Designed with a fill-in page to commemorate the event, space for a photo to be stuck in and an acetate wrap to protect the white mock leather cover, it contains prayers - including many from or inspired directly by the Bible - on the themes of praising God, acknowledging one's baptism, coming to confession, taking part in holy communion, and seeking the great virtues. The book concludes with a section of appealing and reassuring blessings. This will be welcomed not only as a memento of a special day, but as a collection of prayers on which to establish an ongoing repertoire.

This book retells key episodes from the gospels simply and respectfully, and weaves them into a narrative that tells a compelling story from the birth of Jesus to his death and resurrection. The illustrations are faithful to the first century setting and are both evocative and serious, in keeping with the mood of the book. Includes a dedication page and comes with an acetate jacket to protect the beautiful white and gold cover.

This sincere book presents the traditional prayer and line by line explains its Bible origins. Drawing on passages from the Bible it sets the prayer into a wider context. It contains additional prayers - traditional, contemporary and Biblical - and makes a perfect gift for religious occasions; enhancing a child's Christian knowledge and making a beautiful addition to the bookshelf.

Orwell beskriver utvecklingen i Sovjetunionen fram till andra världskriget. De två styrande grisarna symboliserar Stalin och Trotskij och maktkampen dem emellan. Orwell skrev i inledningen till originalupplagan att boken i första hand handlar om Sovjetunionen men att förhållandena inte var mycket annorlunda i England. Boken finns även på svenska; Djurens gård.
