*Get it once in the app store, and will work on both your iPad and iPhone* An audio library of catechetical instruction and Bible study for the formation of Catholic children. Will work on your iPad as well as your iPhone (see instructions below). Includes: - “My Bible History” by Bishop Louis Laravoire Morrow (1892-1987) - An excellent Old and New Testament bible study for children. - Baltimore Catechism No. 2, which includes Catholic prayers. - First Communion stories - Hundreds of charming short stories designed to teach morals and the truths of the Catholic faith, including the six book "Angel Food" series by Fr. Gerald T. Brennan, two books by Fr. Winfrid Herbst called "Just Stories" and "Tell Us Another", "Good Morning Boys and Girls" by Fr. Thomas Hosty, and "Sunday Morning Storyland" by Fr.
