Dennis Prager is, hands down, my favorite talk show host. I was excited when this youth edition crossed our desk at work. It is an excellent resource for children and Sunday School leaders alike. I certainly learned from it and look forward to reading the original adult version.
This was a very straight forward book. It had the Ten Commandments in simple terms and one illustration that was somewhat related to the information provided. It did not show different cultures, values, or perspectives. Other races were represented in this book, though. This book does keep children engaged and they may recall on times when they have done these acts. It does not really provide a problem or solution other than talking with God about their sins. It is more of an informational book as opposed to a narrative story. This would be good for children wanting to learn about Catholicism. It does not go in depth other than providing examples.
