"Every boy needs a hero-- someone to look up to, to emulate, and to follow. Every boy needs to learn how to work hard and to play hard, to be clean of mind and soul. Every boy needs physical and moral courage to grow to be a good man. In Saints for Boys, boys are invited to meet and learn about the men who gave their all for Jesus and His Kingdom. Some of them were fathers, like Saint Joseph; others were prophets, like Saint John the Baptist. Some were apostles, like Saints Peter and Paul, while others were soldiers, like Saint Ignatius Loyola. Parents, grandparents, all who care for children, and boys in particular, will enjoy many warm and wonderful 'teaching moments' in the pages of this beautifully illustrated new classic."
