Spiritual Milk for Boston Babes
'' Spiritual Milk for Boston Babes '' is a children's catechism by the minister John Cotton. The 1656 catechism is the first known children's book published in America.
== Content ==
Cotton's catechism consisted of fifteen pages of 64 questions and answers relating to teachings of Puritanism and the Church. It discussed morals, manners, religious life, the ten commandments, and the last judgment.〔 In the seventeenth century, many English catechisms had over 100 questions and answers for the student of Christianity to remember. The 64 questions and answers in Cotton's catechism made reference to 203 passages from the Old and New Testaments.〔 The children of the seventeenth and eighteenth century were taught Puritan morality with catechisms like ''Spiritual Milk for Boston Babes'' so they would learn not to anger God—otherwise they could be severely punished, even to the point of death.
