About this listen

Celebrate the feasts and seasons with the von Trapp family!

In this joyful and charming book, Maria von Trapp (from The Sound of Music) unveils for you the year-round Christian traditions she loved - traditions that created for her large family a warm and inviting Catholic home and will do the same for yours.

Here are the songs they sang for feasts and holidays. Here are stories and games to delight your children, and countless other ways to turn events such as anniversaries, baptisms, graduations, birthdays, wedding receptions, and even funerals into feasts celebrated in the Lord.

Most people only know the young Maria from The Sound of Music; few realize that in subsequent years, as a pious wife and a seasoned Catholic mother, Maria gave herself unreservedly to keeping her family Catholic by observing in her home the many feasts of the Church's liturgical year, with poems and prayers, food and fun, and so much more!

With the help of Maria von Trapp, you, too, can provide Christian structure and vibrancy to your home. Soon your home will be a warm and loving place, an earthly reflection of our eternal home.

I love the Von Trapp family!

I love the Von Trapp family and everything they stood for. Though I am not catholic, I found all of the information intriguing and important. I am wanting to read the full biography of the family so this was a good preview on their family life and traditions.

Enjoyable look at Old World Rituals

I enjoyed the read. Insightful & informative. Unique perspective & an honest look at how rituals crossed the ocean from the old world & were altered by new world economics. I learned a great deal about my favorite holiday, Christmas. So very glad I found this book.

Pleasant

Narrator good. This is a book that would be more relevant to Roman Catholics. Lots of references to saints prayed too, rosary, etc Interesting Catholic traditions.
