Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: Book Review

An excellent reference on the teachings of the Catholic Church. Gives a concise version of the central points of the Catechism of the Catholic Church without losing the essential aspects. It is more accessible to more people because of it's "three principal characteristics... : the close reliance on the Catechism of the Catholic Church; the dialogical format; the use of artistic images in the catechesis." (Benedict XVI, Introduction to the Compendium)

A great and handy reference. Each Catholic household should own one.
