St. Martin and the Monastery Mice – How St. Martin de Porres solved the pesky problem of his monastery's midnight munchers.

St. Isidore's Angel – An inspiring story of an angel's helping hand to a humble and hard-working farmer.

St. Francis and the Wolf – The astonishing legend of how St. Francis made peace between a vicious wolf and the people of Gubbio.

St. Rose and the Pirates – How St. Rose of Lima used the power of the Blessed Sacrament to save her city from bloodthirsty pirates.

The Angels of the Alps – A story about one of God's most faithful and self-sacrificing creatures, the Saint Bernard, with fun facts about these amazing dogs.
