Description
This beautifully illustrated book is the perfect gift for Communion, Confirmation, Easter baskets, and religious holidays year-round! Performing Miracles. Facing Wild Lions. Confronting Demons. Transforming the World. From Augustine to Mother Teresa (officially canonized as St. Teresa of Calcutta), discover seventy of the best-known and best-loved saints through their riveting stories, filled with history, adventure, and inspiration. Written with an emphasis on the adventurous life and strong character of each saint, these stories are as exciting as any Greek myth and as inspiring as any tale about knights or superheroes. Meet beloved saints like:
Each saint is illustrated in a dramatic and stylized full-color portrait, and included in every entry are the saint's dates, location, emblems, feast days, and patronage. Taken together, these stories create a rich, inspiring, and entertaining history of faith and courage. For kids age 10 and up. Imprimatur granted by the Diocese of Brooklyn.
- Joan of Arc, whose transcendent faith compelled her to lead an army when the king's courage failed.
- Francis of Assisi, whose gentleness tamed a man-eating wolf.
- Valentine, a bishop in the time of ancient Rome, who spoke so often of Christ's love that his saint's day, February 12, has been associated with courtly love since the Middle Ages.
- St. Thomas Aquinas, the great teacher.
- Peter Claver, who cared for hundreds of thousands of people on slave ships after their voyage as captives.
- Bernadette, whose vision of Mary instructed her to dig the spring that became the healing waters of Lourdes.
- And many more!
