Vision Books on Saints

My children love the "Vision" series of books on saints by Ignatius Press. These are chapter books of about 150 - 200 pages in length. We have read a couple of them already, and the boys were eager to get more. Today Isaac and I visited our local Diocesan book and gift shop, The Open Window and we picked up "Bernadette: Our Lady's Little Servant," "St. Thomas More," and "St. Anthony and the Christ Child." We also put four more books on order. This should keep us busy for a little while! Seriously, though, I am trying to get my children to know as much as they can about the saints as positive role models before anti-religious peer pressure starts kicking in. Right now, they are eager learners and I want to take advantage of that. The saints are interesting people. I enjoy these stories as well and always learn something from reading them. It is good to know more about our friends up in heaven.
