But of course you do want to start with the BIble and there are many good Catholic Childrens Bibles that are worded and organized in accordance with the requirements of the Catholic Church.

But the Catholic Church has many rich traditions to bring its members closer to Jesus and his father. Of course the central tradition is the Celebration of the Mass. There are many books that you can use to teach your child about all of the traditions included in the Mass. Using a book will help you stay organized as you cover this complex subject.

The Catholic faith has a rich traditions of saints. Who doesn't know to ask Saint Anthony for help finding things? But there are many more revered Saints who have much to teach Catholic children and adults about living their faith. Luckily there are many books about them.

They also unite Catholics around the world, who also pray the same prayers. So understanding these prayers and knowing them is an important part of a Catholic's spiritural life.

If you want to reinforce what your child learns at Sunday School, you might be interested to know that there are many Catholic activity books based on Catholic teachings and the Catholic catechism.
