If your child has ever asked, “how does someone become a saint?”–this is the book for them!!
This book is a detailed look at the life of Carlo Acutis–with insights from those who knew him and the Vatican documents compiled during his cause for sainthood.
It addresses the questions many children (and adults!) have about how someone becomes a saint and the Church’s process of recognizing if someone is in Heaven–incredibly timely considering the final miracle needed for Carlo’s canonization was just APPROVED.
Here is what families have been telling us:
“Holy Heroes does heavy lifting in today’s Catholic marketplace in making saints accessible, understandable, and fascinating to kids. They’ve hit it out of the park with this one—equal parts saint biography with photos and apologetics for how the Church determines sainthood.”
“I loved the information Holy Heroes included: website addresses, copies of the Vatican documents, and a great explanation of how the Church investigates and declares someone a saint. My sons carry this around the house reading it, and I’m glad they have such a relatable example of holiness.”
“I thought this was going to be a great read for my four sons, and it turns out that this book is written for me, too. The story of Carlo’s life is shared beautifully, with photos and screen shots of his website included. Even I learned more about saints while reading it. I know this book will be read over and over in our home!”
“We love Blessed Carlo Acutis and had yet to find a book that wasn’t written for babies and adults for my elementary-age children. This book is perfect! My children have loved learning about one of their favorite Saints on a reading level that’s perfect for them. The pictures are so great and really bring this future Saint to life. Highly recommend this book!”
It is the PERFECT way for kids to learn HOW to become a saint and the steps each person has to go through!
Another fantastic book to get is The Eucharistic Miracles of the World!
This incredible book is based on the website created by Carlo Acutis and details Eucharistic miracles from around the world!
Including commentary from scientists, historians, and the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, this book is a guide for anyone (Catholic or not) who is striving to learn more about the True Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.
If you have science-oriented kids, this book is a MUST-HAVE for every Catholic home!
