This review is from: Mornings With Fulton Sheen: 120 Holy Hour Readings (Hardcover)
Before the wild-eyed, garrulous and hortatory evangelists typical of today's television was Bishop Fulton Sheen (1898-1979), a Catholic priest who offered low-key but compelling commentary on the pioneering video airwaves of the 1950s. He made the covers of Time, Life, and Look (as the greatest communicator of our time); President Eisenhower proclaimed hmself a fan. Sheen, a former farm boy from Peoria, married the common touch to scholarly epiphany. And he had a sense of humor. Now comes "Mornings with Fulton Sheen:120 Holy Hour Readings" lovingly compiled by Beverly Coney Heirich (Servant Publications). A sample in the bishop's typically pellucid prose: "One day a woman said to Father John Vianney, the Cure of Ars in France, 'My husband has not been to the sacraments or to Mass for years. He has been unfaithful, wicked, and unjust. He has just fallen from a bridge and was drowned - a double death of body of soul.' The Cure answered: 'Madam, there is a short distance between the bridge and the water, and it is that distance which forbids you to judge.'"

Putting life in perspective...,
This review is from: Mornings With Fulton Sheen: 120 Holy Hour Readings (Hardcover)
This book was a gift to me in so many ways. As a Protestant, I was amazed at the relevance Bishop Sheen's words held for my life. As a student, this book has been useful as a reference for quotes for research papers, etc. (Useful for speeches, too.) Each page holds a concise, insightful, and powerful Christian message to meditate on. When I do not have much time, I take a moment before bed or before I start my day to read one page. The book is organized so well for people who are pressed for time, and it will probably change your life for the better, as it has mine. If you want to know how God wants us to view the world, and if you need a powerful reminder of what your priorities really are, read this book!

MIRTH AND A MORAL,
This review is from: Pascual and the Kitchen Angels (Hardcover)
Few can match author/artist Tomie DePaola's gift for combining mirth and a moral to create an enchanting story for young readers. He has focused on the lives of saints in the past and he does so once more in this imagined tale of Pascual, the patron saint of cooks and the kitchen.Beginning with Pascual's birth when angels sang his mother and father regarded their son with both pride and awe. At first, his father thought the boy might grow up to be a shepherd because of the tender care he took of sheep. But when he reached young manhood Pascual announced that he wanted "to be a friar and help feed people who are hungry." So, his parents sent him to the monastery of Saint Francis. Imagine Pascual's surprise when the friars asked him to prepare dinner. Why, he didn't even know how to boil water! One thing Pascual did know how to do was pray. Amazing things began to happen when Pascual closed his eyes and knelt on the kitchen floor. Young readers will relate to Pascual and to the cheery art panels that bring the tale to life. - Gail Cooke

What a gift,
This review is from: Pascual and the Kitchen Angels (Hardcover)
Children's books can be so wonderful... but are often void of any real substance. DePaola is able to integrate a lovely story with lovely pictures and lovely morals all at once. We got this book at the library and are now going to buy it. It's so nice to have your faith boosted by everyday stories read to a child.

Wonderful book!,
This review is from: Pascual and the Kitchen Angels (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed this book. I have read many of Tomie de Paola's books and bought a few of them especially the ones with religious themes. They are simple but with a great story and message. I started this book with even knowing it was based on a real saint St Pascual Baylon and liked it very much.
