AS GOD ENVISIONED IT:

Skunk, cockroach is a timeless tale (PAT CAHILL, 12/16/07, The Republican)

Earlier this fall, when the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City held its Blessing of the Beasts, the animal lovers in the procession got a special treat.

It was an exhibition of engravings from a new book by Ethel Pochocki, "The Blessing of the Beasts."

The illustrator: renowned artist Barry Moser of Hatfield.

The 39-page book was originally intended for children, but with Moser's engravings and Pochocki's lyrical prose and timeless tale, it's a work of art for any age.

Not only is Mr. Moser's Pennyroyal Caxton Bible one of the great books in Creation, but you can get the paperback for under $14.
