Mysteries of Light is a picture book with kid-friendly illustrations and thought-provoking prayers written by the author that teach solid Catholic Doctrine in a way that is both accessible to children and is theologically undiluted. It presents the Luminous Mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary that were promulgated by our late and beloved pontiff, John Paul II in a way that kids can understand but also is free from the watered-down theology that sadly often gets distributed.
Shaun Ratcliffe wrote and illustrated Mysteries of Light to help children understand what it means to be Catholic in an increasingly secular society.

“I come from the D.I.Y. ethic,” said Shaun Ratcliffe. “Having had done it myself for many years prior to the advent of the internet as a publisher of a hand-drawn fanzine in the 1980’s I completely appreciate the new advances in technology that make my work more readily available. I also love the fact that I don’t have to sell my soul and compromise my work in order to get a market-quality printed product distributed. Lulu.com makes that and much more possible.”
