Description
Who can tell the stories of the saints better than the saints themselves? In this beautifully illustrated book, twenty-six saints tell the story of their lives to kids in a simple and personal way. From the Blessed Virgin Mary to Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, each saint comes to life in this book. And each one has something important to tell kids about God and the way he works in our lives. Saints were real people who loved God above all else, and this book will help kids understand why we honor them and why they are the perfect companions for our own faith journey. Among the other saints included in this delightful book are St. Joseph, St. Peter, St. Paul, St. Nicholas, St. Patrick, St. Francis of Assisi, St. John Bosco, St. Bernadette, St. Thrse of Lisieux, and St. Maximillian Kolbe.
