“Kathleen y el Helicóptero de la Primera Comunión”, by Avril O’Reilly

Kathleen is worried about her First Holy Communion. All the children in her school are making a huge fuss of the day. The children are buying special outfits, planning hair-dos and hiring castles and cars. One girl is even going to hire a Communion Copter. But Kathleen’s mum thinks making a fuss is ridiculous and insists Kathleen wears a very dull, tasteful dress.

Kathleen does not want to be the plainest girl there so she decides to “bling” her rosary beads. She is going to customize them to make them special.

Will that be enough to make her Communion Day special or will the Communion Copter put everyone in the shade?

Good things are happening in Kathleen's school. The children in the Holy Communion class are doing a project on Latin America.

But will Nessa, the little rich girl, make things difficult with her project on Peru? Hmmmm...probably!
