wonderful pictures and stories!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Sister Wendy has put together a great book on Saints. I really enjoyed that she placed the saint's feast day, attributes, and what the saint is a patron to in the margins. Lovely stories and paintings. It's only fault is that it could have been much longer with more saints included.
GOD BLESS SISTER WENDY!

Sister Wendy's winsome and humble approach to her subject is a testimony to her obviously strong faith. The book is absolutely beautiful and genuinely well-written and ought to be on everyone's coffeetable as far as I'm concerned.
