The author places special emphasis on the saint's virtues and shows children how they may practice these virtues in their own lives. Charity, peace making, faith, social justice, gentleness, courage, and love for God, neighbors and creation are just some of the virtues highlighted in the lives of these holy heroes.
For each saint there is a lively account of his or her life and good works, a prayer service, questions for discussion, a craft, suggested activities, and a puzzle or game. Perfect for middle graders.
Correlates with the video series, Saints for All Seasons.
