Father and Son The story of the Nativity from St. Joseph's View
Lucia Saint of Light Everything about the Feast of St. Lucy! From recipes, to history and tradtions and wonderful pictures!
The Legend of the Poinsettia A beautiful story about the Poinsettia and how the smallest gifts are most often the ones that Jesus loves the most. No gift is too small!
The Story of the Other Wiseman An old classic written in 1896.
The Twelve Days of Christmas Despite the Amazon statement of this being a 'secular' book it was an old poem used when Catholic's were persecuted and has great religious and Catholic meaning to it. A beautifully illustrated book!
The Miracle of Saint Nicholas We LOVE LOVE LOVE this book, probably up there as our top favorite. The boy"Alexy," has a special meaning in this house and our boys are also adopted from Russia along with the whole story of the Church being attacked and 'going underground' it is an all around favorite here. A real treasure and a special gift.
The Baker's Dozen This is a fun and very teachable book about how to keep the spirit of giving this season a lesson that St. Nicholas often taught. There is always plenty to go around especially when we give in Jesus' name! Want this book for free? We will be giving away a copy... maybe two on the Feast of St. Nicholas! Look for the blog post to come :) Also visit the
St. Nicholas center to get your St. Nicholas cookie cutter for his feast in just a few days!
The True Story of Saint Nicholas This is by far our favorite story about St.Nicholas, while it is mingled with a little bit of fiction it's a very good presentation of such a Holy Saint to little ones so they understand the real meaning well!
We have SO many favorites and these are just a few. Many of these can be found at your local library and they are also listed (along with others) in our Shoppe. May you have a blessed Advent!
