My Year With the Saints For Kids by Peter Celano

"May the Lord grant us all the hope of being saints." Pope Francis recently shared this prayer with the world - and that includes kids. You, too, can become a saint. You just have to open your heart and let God help you. This book introduces you to a saint every day - people like you who made the choice to love Jesus and give their lives to him. These stories, prayers, and suggestions for becoming holy are designed with your needs and your life in mind. Once you get underway toward sainthood, you should go ahead and reveal these examples and teachings to the adults around you, too. We all need this! A kids' first devotional, designed to be read daily for one year. Includes readings from saints with special messages for kids, addressing topics of special concern to them (eg. self-image, how to pray, obedience, Jesus, joy). Includes prayers in accessible language, and occasional prompts to try spiritual practices.
