An introduction to the sacramental imagination and poetry’s enduring role in the Church
Twenty-one poems by Catholic poets through the centuries, unified by their reflection on God’s presence in the natural world. Poems are split into three sections: fall, winter, and spring.
Twenty-one hand-painted illustrations that visually complement the poems
Thoughtful discussion questions that invite readers children and adults alike to reflect on each poem together
“Ponder” prompts that guide readers deeper into the spiritual themes and imagery of the poems
“Act” prompts that encourage engagement with the natural world as a way of encountering God
Short biographies of each featured poet, revealing how they embraced a sacramental imagination in their own lives
Children aged 8-12 would benefit most from all features of the book, but the collection is designed for families of all ages to enjoy.
