Mary Fabyan Windeatt could well be called the "storyteller of the saints", for such indeed she was. And she had a singular talent for bringing out doctrinal truths in her stories, so that without even realizing it, young readers would see the Catholic catechism come to life in the lives of the saints. There will be more than one way to use this book. It can be used before, during or after reading the chapter from which the words were taken. You will find that the words in the workbook appear in the same sequence as they appear in the WIndeatt book from which they were taken. In most cases there will be no problem with using this workbook even without reading the chapter, though occasionally the answer choices may seem odd unless one sees how the vocabulary word was used in the sentence. "We have conceived this workbook not primarily as a dictionary exercise but primarily as an exercise in using one's head. Using the dictionary can be a back-up system, if desired....There will be great profit in simply making well thought-out guesses as to the correct answers, then checking one's answers against the Answer Key. Whenever you find that you have chosen an incorrect answer, just make a mental note of the correct answer and consider this a learning experience. In that way, the use of this workbook will be not drudgery but fun, resulting in a painless expansion and fine tuning of your vocabulary."
