Book excerpt: 5 year-old Molly McBride dreams of becoming a nun when she grows up, so Momma sewed her a purple habit just like the ones worn by her special friends, the Children of Mary Sisters. And she never wants to take it off! Until now, this hasn't caused the McBride family any major problems. But Molly's big sister Terry has a very, very special day coming up, and Momma bought Molly a fancy new dress to wear for the occasion. Will Molly find a way to wear her purple habit to The Big Day? And why do nuns wear habits, anyway? Molly McBride and the Purple Habit is more than just a cute and colorful story to entertain Catholic children of all ages. Dr. Egolf's book explores important tenets of our beautiful Faith such as the Sacrament of Holy Communion and the Holy Mystery of the Mass in a simple but beautiful way that takes the whole family into a deeper understanding of Christ's Love.
