The lives of saints for children . . .

Who are the saints, why are they important, and what can children learn from the saints? In Loyola Kids Book of Saints,
the first in the Loyola Kids series, author Amy Welborn answers these questions with exciting and inspiring stories, real-life applications,and important information about these heroes of the church. This delightful collection of saints for children, written in a storybook style for ages eight to twelve, explains how saints become saints, why we honor them, and how they help us even today.

Divided thematically, the book features more than sixty saints for children from all over the world and from all across time, including our newest saints, such as Katharine Drexel; popular saints, such as St. Anthony of Padua; and Blesseds, such as Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha. Each story tells about a saint and encourages children to think about how they might use what they learn from the story in their everyday lives.
