Candles was first published in three volumes, one for each year of the liturgical cycle. Since then David Adam’s teaching programme has proved to be of enduring value as a resource for those who lead children’s groups of pre-school age to 5 years. It is now being republished as a single volume, alongside its companion volume for older children, Lamps, covering Years A, B and C of Common Worship. Apart from minor revisions and updates the content of the original book remains the same. This revised edition includes a CD-Rom of the worksheets for every Sunday.
