Only open if you have a BOY

If you’ve been around here for long, you’ve probably heard my daughters LOVE Clare’s Costly Cookie.

Once we shared it with our fans, hundreds of other young girls fell in love with Clare. 

But then we started getting emails:

“What about the boys? Is there a chapter book like this for them?”

For a long time, I didn’t have any way to respond to those emails.

Honestly, we hadn’t found something similar for boys. 

Enter Patti Maguire Armstrong (introduced to us by this author).

Patti told us SHE HAD THE ANSWER. 

And not just one answer—
Patti had TWO BOOKS for Catholic boys. 

We are honored to publish the
NEW Expanded 2nd Edition of the Dear God Series!

Dear God, I Don’t Get It (2nd Edition)

This Catholic fiction novel introduces us to Aaron, a 6th grader who experiences a crisis in faith when his family moves. 

When Aaron shows compassion to an unlikely kid and risks losing his newfound friends’ acceptance, he experiences the reality that being a real hero sometimes means that others will turn against you.

Dear God, You Can’t Be Serious! (2nd Edition)

When Luke, a 5th grader, finds out he’s going to be homeschooled with his brothers, he can’t believe it and questions whether or not God is listening when he prays to go back to school with his friends.

Will Luke end up learning that sometimes God answers our prayers in ways we don’t expect?

Now, you might have noticed that Holy Heroes rarely carries fiction. 

We enjoy sharing real-life stories of the saints but every once and a while, there is a fiction book that is so good…we just can’t pass it up.

These books are just that.

But don’t take our word for it–check out what other Catholic parents have said about these books: 

“My 11-year-old son absolutely LOVED this book. He read this book TWICE in just a few days time. In his own words, ‘The book is AWESOME and I LOVE it!’ Shortly after reading the book, my son jumped out of our car at the store to help a lady put her groceries in her car. Since he had never done that before, I asked why he did it. He said it was because it reminded him of the book! All I can say is that it is FANTASTIC to have a book that inspires kids to do great things.”

“In an era when children’s authors promote pop culture values in stories that ignore their readers’ spiritual yearnings, Armstrong offers a wonderful real-life example of questioning and commitment to one’s faith that results in a genuine friendship with God. By providing discussion questions at the end of the book, the author gives readers and leaders the tools to understand the story’s message.”

“Being a father of three boys very close in age to the three brothers in Patti Armstrong’s books I can relate to so many of the stories she shares. I would recommend this book to all parents and children from 8 – 12 years of age. It will resonate with both the parents and the children. When we let go and let God we discover we might have gotten something better than we asked for in our prayer.”
