God has a special mission for each of us! With engaging prose and delightful illustrations, I'm a Saint in the Making reminds children of their unique call from God to live with mission and love. By recounting the highlights of the stories of both well-known and newer saints (including John Paul II, Mary MacKillop, Augustus Tolton, Teresa of Calcutta, Juan Diego and Chiara Badano) in relatable lessons, the book helps readers learn that there is no one single way to live a life of sanctity. I'm a Saint in the Making offers simple but impactful suggestions for ways children can offer acts of prayer, service, and love. Resources for parents, teachers, and caregivers at the end of book provide support for adults as they seek to encourage and accompany their young saints in the making.

"What a beautiful book! And the perfect gift for young people, who long for, and need, good role models. The stories of the saints are always fascinating to kids and Lisa Hendey's new book will invite them not only to discover these stories but discover sanctity in their own lives. And, not incidentally, the illustrations are jaw-droppingly good!" --James Martin, SJ, author of "Jesus: A Pilgrimage" and "My Life with the Saints."
