| For each saint, Joyce Denham gives a short historical introduction, and then retells one significant episode in their life, shining a light on the work and wisdom for which they were most loved and remembered. Where appropriate, she also includes a saying or prayer attributed to him or her.
Fourteen saints are profiled, in accessible language for children. From the Bible: The Virgin Mary, John the Baptist, Peter, Mary Magdalene, Stephen, and Paul. From Christian history—3rd to 14th centuries: Lawrence (Italy), Martin of Tours (France), Genevieve (France), Columba (Ireland/Scotland), Bathild (England/France), Francis of Assisi, Elizabeth of Portugal, and Bridget (Sweden). |
