I believe it's in the small blue devotional book that's familiar to American Catholics.

Mine is in my purse all the time and gets used every day. The prayers I use every day are always at hand. I have trouble memorizing, so I use the Anima Christi and the lists of all the Mysteries of the Rosary, every day. Everything important is marked with bookmarks.
