When I was homeschooling, I used to read saint books to my kids. I think my favorite was the one about St. Pius X that's written for school-age kids. It's called "Saint Pius X: The Farm Boy Who Became Pope" from Fr. Walter Diethelm. It had a lot of great stories. I tend to prefer books for middle schoolers than for adults. I need something that will hold my interest. Your book, of course, holds my interest though!
LOL! Thank you, Jill! I know what you mean; sometimes adult saint books can be dry and pedantic. My mother always said we liked "juicy" books (instead of "dry"). :)
