Kathleen and the Communion Copter

Kathleen and her mum and grandmother set about finding a First Holy Communion dress for Kathleen. Everyone means well but there are mini misunderstandings all around. Kathleen and her classmates are approaching this big event with excitement and a little anxiety too.

Kathleen is worried that Jesus and her mum might have different ideas about Kathleen's dress. A lot of expectations are being put on one dress and Kathleen has to balance other peoples' ideas about the perfect dress with her own hopes and desires.

This book takes a light-hearted look at the pressures that the modern Communion can put on families.

There is a gentle message about the meaning of Communion and a warning against getting carried away with the (admittedly very enjoyable) commercial and superficial aspects.
