This soft-cover book includes the well-known Lord's Prayer, and Prayer Before Meals, and a Bedtime Prayer, Prayer for Mom and Dad, and Prayer for Grandma and Grandpa composed by Gerard Aflague. Chamorro translations by bilingual linguist Fermina Sablan. Each prayer is broken into short phrases per page, and translated in both Chamorro and English - to allow children to more easily memorize them in repeatable chunks. Prayers are accompanied by vibrant and colorful illustrations that make it more interesting to read, and are designed with colorful backgrounds that gain the attention of young readers. Chamorro is a unique language of the people of the Mariana islands in the North West Pacific region including Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.
