DOWNLOAD EBOOKFourth in a series of award-winning children's books, Can You Find Saints? Introducing Your Child to Holy Men and Women teaches children and the adults in their lives about saints and the holy lives they led. Full of colorful and witty illustrations, the book invites children to search the illustrations for a variety of objects relating to the featured saints, from well-known saints such as Mary, Francis of Assisi and Bernadette to lesser-known saints such as Linus, Jane Frances de Chantal and Juan Diego. More than a dozen searches introduce children to saints in the Bible, patron saints, saints who worked miracles, saints who were popes, saints who founded religious orders, saints whom the Church celebrates in a special way, saints from various walks of life, saints who lived in recent times, and those people who can be called "saints in the making." To help start family and classroom discussion, a complete guide for adults is included, explaining the special items in each illustration and giving thumbnail biographies of each saint.
