Saints are real-life heroes of faith who inspire us by their virtues to become more like Christ. In the Saints and Me! series, these beautifully illustrated early-reader books tell the real stories of saints that come to life and connect with today's children aged 3 to 8.
- The everyday lives of the saints and their holy ways are engagingly introduced for curious young children. The saint's story is filled with details to which young children can relate.
- Lively, full-color illustrations on every page match the text, aiding emerging readers with the text and story sequence.
- Each book is biographical, but also includes a virtue, the saint's feast day, and other details about the saint.
- A common image "town map" in each saint book for the Saints for Communities Collection captures the theme for each saint. (Cecilia = outdoor amphitheater/stage and music-note icon)
The Saints for Communities Collection includes a book for each of the 6 saints: Joan of Arc, John Baptist de la Salle, Matthew the Apostle, Cecilia, Thomas the Apostle, and Michael the Archangel
The Collection includes a classroom poster of the themed Town Map with space for children to add their own saints and community workers.
Sold separately, the companion activity book for the set offers coloring pages, simple word searches featuring words from the texts, and other activities.
