- Children's Version

Product Codes:
C-1010 Single Small Catechism Price: $2.00 each + tax

Luther's Small Catechism - Children's Version is a simplified edition of the classic instructional booklet by Martin Luther, illustrated and written in easy-to-understand language, suitable for young students. Traditional texts of (Apostles' Creed, Lord's Prayer, etc.) have been included for the purpose of memorization, with the same texts re-written "in everyday language." Martin Luther's explanations follow in a careful paraphrase, that uses simplified word replacement rather than a looser rendition of thoughts and ideas. Scripture texts are taken from the Contemporary English Version (CEV) of the Bible, which is written at a similar level. The curious character known as "Luther's Small Cat" follows the readings, page by page.
