Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Does anyone have a favorite picture book about Mary they recommend? I'm trying to get some ideas for baptisms and birthdays that we have coming up in the next few months.

Thanks!

I love Young Mary of Nazareth for the artwork as much as the text. Despite the Amazon suggestion, it is a picture book, not a 9-12 book.
