20 gentle and heartfelt stories for awesome girls - just as they are - discovering God's personal love and presence during the First Communion year.

Through relatable family and school moments, this book helps young girls see how God is near in everyday life - in friendship struggles, sibling conflicts, quiet fears, and joyful celebrations. Each story gently guides readers to understand the beauty of the sacraments and the richness of a Catholic way of life.

What your awesome girl will find inside:
  • 20 engaging stories about Emma, her brother Ben, her loving parents, and their dog Scout and cat Luna

  • A key Bible verse that opens and anchors each chapter

  • 4 thoughtful reflection questions to help her come close to Jesus

  • A short, heartfelt prayer after every story

  • Practical insight into First Confession and First Holy Communion

  • Encouragement to stay close to Jesus through regular Communion, Confession, and daily Scripture reading

This book prepares girls not only for the day of First Communion, but for a living friendship with Jesus that continues long after the white dress is folded away.

Includes a highly positive theological review by Franciscan Friar Rev. Wit Chlondowski, O.F.M., Doctor of Theology.
