Easter at the Mission: A Cat’s Observation of the Paschal Mystery

No Comments

Sula, the now-famous church cat, tackles a mysterious topic for her fifth book: What is Easter, what is its meaning, what are the beliefs behind Catholic behaviors associated with the Lenten season and Easter, why is it called the Paschal mystery?

Sula answers these questions with history, dogma, and humor. And, of course, with pictures, lots and lots of people-cat pictures.

The sections of the book–Ash Wednesday, Lent, Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil and East Morning–are beautifully illustrated with drawings by Uliana Yanovich.
