Absolutely beautiful book in a lovely presentation case
The book I ordered is of high quality printing and as I ordered the hardback cover will hopefully be a lasting keepsake for our grandson. I would recommend these books without hesitation.

Fabulous bible for First Holy Communion. Grandaughter delighted to see her name on the cover with the date too. Personal dedication inside is a nice touch too. Ordering was easy and delivered on time. Can’t fault the service. In fact this is the second time we have bought a bible; last time was for older grandson. Will buy a third when youngest grandaughter comes of age. Highly recommend this company.
