By: Ciel Publishing

Narrated by: Amber McCulloch

Raise kids who are kind, brave, and rooted in faith—with stories that shape their hearts and imaginations.

A 2021 study published in Frontiers in Psychology found that children exposed to stories of moral heroism—particularly those involving courage, compassion, and perseverance—show significant growth in empathy, moral reasoning, and character development. The saints are not just historical figures—they are developmental role models. What if your child’s bedtime story could shape their soul?

This inspiring collection brings 20 Catholic saints to life through short, powerful stories your child will never forget. Each one is written with warmth, simplicity, and heart, perfect for ages 6–12 to listen to on their own or aloud with family.

More than just biographies, these are spiritual adventures that help kids see themselves in the stories of saints who laughed, struggled, forgave, prayed, and made the world better—one faithful step at a time.

Virtue is courageous

What struck me is how many of these stories show bravery not as the absence of fear, but as the decision to act in spite of it.. true courage doesn’t come from never feeling afraid, but from choosing love, faith, or justice even when the risk feels overwhelming. It reminded me that the most meaningful acts of virtue often happen in quiet, personal choices.. not in front of crowds, but in those unseen moments where fear and conviction collide. That’s where real heroism is born.
