All of us are called to be saints, but if children and teens don't know their stories, how can they follow them? And if they think saints are boring, why would they even try? Bedtime with the Saints: Featuring Saint Carlo Acutis proves that holy lives are anything but dull. These stories overflow with adventure, humor, heroism, and heart. From daring escapes and hidden Masses to laugh-out-loud absurdities, young readers will discover that God's friends are the most exciting companions of all. And tired parents, grandparents, teachers and catechists will finally have a resource they look forward to reading. The book first began in the witty imagination of the late Fr. Frank Lee, CSSR (may he rest in peace). Author Christine Watkins has expanded his vision to include a total of nineteen saints, blesseds, venerables, and servants of God from every age, culture, and walk of life-so that every young reader can recognize themselves and their own future in these heroes of faith. Beautiful artwork and modern-day photos bring to life saints of old and saints of late. The book highlights St. Carlo Acutis, whom God has raised up as a north star for young people navigating the storms and pitfalls of modern times. Bedtime with the Saints brings to light hidden stories and intriguing details of his life that are rarely shared. So go ahead, take a leap of faith, get the book and meet Patrick, who lit a fire so bright it changed a nation. Cheer for Joan of Arc, the teenage warrior who led an army. Laugh with Martin de Porres, the barber who made peace with mice. Discover why Julia Greeley, a former slave, was called God's "secret night angel, and of course, be inspired by Carlo Acutis, the teen computer genius, who made sure that others knew Who was present in the Eucharist. Tuck in, snuggle up, open your heart, and get ready for bedtime with the saints.
