This engaging book introduces children to essential spiritual practices, helping them and their families embrace a Jesus-centered life. El Mejor Día is a wonderful resource.
The book El Mejor Día serves as a thoughtful introduction to the Way of Love, designed specifically for children and their families. It provides a framework for understanding Jesus-centered practices for kids aged 3 to 10. The text is written in an engaging and accessible manner, ensuring that young readers can grasp the importance of rhythm and spiritual practices in their daily lives. Accompanied by the vibrant artwork of Roger Hutchison, the book creates a visually stimulating experience that complements its educational content.
Through a series of simple yet profound concepts, El Mejor Día invites children to explore essential practices such as Turning, Learning, Praying, Worshiping, Blessing, Going, and Resting. Each practice is presented with clarity, making it easy for children to understand how they can incorporate these elements into their everyday routines. This approach not only nurtures their spiritual growth but also encourages families to engage in these practices together, fostering a sense of community and shared faith.
By introducing these principles at an early age, El Mejor Día aims to equip children with wisdom and understanding that will benefit them throughout their lives. The combination of relatable language and beautiful illustrations makes this book a valuable resource for families seeking to cultivate a deeper connection with their faith while enjoying meaningful moments together.

“Mi esposa y yo compartimos esto con nuestras nietas, ¡y les encantó! Les gustaron especialmente el arte y la poesía. Pero lo que más me emocionó fue la forma en que respondieron a las preguntas y la profundidad de sus comentarios. Creo que este es un libro con el que niños y niñas pueden entretenerse un buen tiempo, viendo cada aspecto del arte y reflexionando sobre el Camino del Amor, un concepto que -a pesar de su edad- conocen. Lo recomiendo para niños y niñas y, por supuesto, ¡los adultos también lo disfrutaremos!”
—El Reverendo Canónigo Anthony Guillén, misionero de los Ministerios Latinos/Hispanos y director de los Ministerios Étnicos para la Iglesia Episcopal
“Me encanta que este libro El Mejor Día, está lleno de bella poesía e imágenes que permiten al lector, joven o viejo, reflexionar sobre la fe: ¿Cómo podemos incorporar los elementos del Camino del Amor? ¿Cómo podemos caminar hacia el amor de Dios y sentirlo en nuestras vidas?” —Mildred J. Reyes, Misionera Latina, Diócesis de Washington
“El segundo gran regalo que Roger nos hace es recoger el proceso del Camino del Amor y lo convierte en una serie de pequeñas historias que se conectan. Los pasos propuestos por el Camino del Amor son: Cambiar, Aprender, Orar, Adorar, Bendecir, Ir y Descansar. Cada uno de estos pasos pueden ser saboreados permitiendo que el niño o la niña use de su imaginación creativa. Es muy posible que la riqueza de los colores y las imagines ayuden a expandir esa imaginación.” —De prefacio por El Rev. Canónigo Jesús Reyes
