Book Reviews of Saint Ciaran: The Tale of a Saint of Ireland
Book Review: Beautiful illustrations! Beautiful story!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book because my parish is named in honor of St. Ciaran of Saighir and I'd never seen any other book written about him. I gave a copy to our school library and kept another for myself. I read it every March 5 on the Feast of St. Kieran. I think the illustrations and story are lovely!
Summary of Saint Ciaran: The Tale of a Saint of Ireland
Of all green Ireland's saints, Ciaran of Saighir was the first. Born early in the sixth century, Ciaran was called to bring the light of God's name to a dark Ireland that had not yet heard it. While few facts are known of Ciaran's life, author Gary Schmidt here tells the tale that lives on, a tale which is "as true as any story ought to be." Illustrated with luminous oil paintings by Todd Doney, Saint Ciaran is a remarkably beautiful story, full of faith and wonder, miracle and mysteries.Irish Books
