Publisher's summary

The lives of the saints demonstrate one of the most powerful ways God draws people to himself, showing us the love and the joy we can find in him. But so often, these saints seem distant, impossibly holy, dull, or unlike us in race, age, and state in life. In Saints Around the World, you'll meet over 100 saints from more than 60 countries, including saints with different disabilities, strengths, and struggles. The captivating storytelling will introduce you and your children to new heavenly friends while also helping you fall more in love with Jesus.

Each story in this book is written not only to capture the imagination, but also to speak about God's tremendous love and our call to be saints. There are stories in Saints Around the World for when you feel like life isn't fair, when people are being unkind to you, when you've made a terrible mistake, when you're struggling at school, and when prayer is hard. And there are stories of shouting down Nazis, fleeing a murderous villain, making scientific discoveries, and smoking a cigar while enemy soldiers amputate your leg.

There are scared saints, brilliant saints, weak saints, adventurous saints, abused saints, overjoyed saints, disabled saints - and the point of every one of them is the love of God. Whether you're checking the map to find saints who look like you or perusing the extensive indices to find saints with your skills or struggles, you'll find countless stories in this book that remind you how very possible holiness is.

Remarkable!

Even tho the story & narration is intended for a young age group, Meg still did a great job of keeping each Saint's bio fresh..esp. ending with the Blessed Virgin Mary's own bio! Nice touch! Still amazing as to the obscure names that were brought up..& I listen to the Saint of the Day every day! Smh..'job well done my good & faithful servant!'

Solid, thorough and intriguing

Kids can easily relate to the saints. She presents them so beautifully. She gives great detail but also demonstrates virtue. Amazing!
