The Carpenter and the Cross invites children to walk with Christ on His Triduum journey through Calvary, to the glory and joy of the Resurrection; and it includes colouring-in pages, a word search and a crossword at the back of the book to help make the story more interactive. It also includes quotations from the Gospel of Luke about the Passion and Resurrection of Christ to encourage the children to read and ponder the passages for themselves in the Bible.
