One of my favorite books in primary grades was "The Bible for Little Tots." Years later, in novitiate, I found a copy. Sure enough, it was published by the Daughters of St. Paul!xaipehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04032465016160490375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21733929.post-1140369172059532992006-02-19T09:12:00.000-08:002006-02-19T09:12:00.000-08:00My very first book from the Daughters of St. Paul was called "Heavenly Friends" a saint for every day of the year. Christine's Mother got it for me on our first visit to the Book Center in Philly. I really loved that book. It's no longer in print, unfortunately, but 57 Saints ceratinly is! The book you read in 2nd grade is still a bestseller today.Sr. Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11286181378422886465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21733929.post-1140244950459259952006-02-17T22:42:00.000-08:002006-02-17T22:42:00.000-08:00What charming recollections! In the second grade, and rather precocious as a reader, I devoured a book from the Daughters of St. Paul. I think it was called 52 Saints for Children (circa 1964). I think it was the first book I read that didn't have a picture on every page or two.MaureenMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21733929.post-1140038556574934642006-02-15T13:22:00.000-08:002006-02-15T13:22:00.000-08:00Hey, don't forget to tell them about the books you and Sr. Christine wrote/illustrated together! I think you should put them in the sidebar!xaipehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04032465016160490375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21733929.post-1139952735359804462006-02-14T13:32:00.000-08:002006-02-14T13:32:00.000-08:00I'm so looking forward to the next installment.

She entered the Daughters of St. Paul a week before I did!Sr. Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11286181378422886465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21733929.post-1139625906647074732006-02-10T18:45:00.000-08:002006-02-10T18:45:00.000-08:00So...did Christine become a Sister too?<BR/>I'm enjoying the story. I used to read those saint books a lot when I was that age too. "Song of Bernadette" was a big favorite, as I recall.Barb, sfohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00329184613713551475noreply@blogger.com
