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.

My book arrived today and I love, love, love this book. Absolutely impressed!!!


I'm glad you like Our Lady of Guadalupe by
Carmen T. Bernier-Grand.

Tomie dePaola's
The Lady of Guadalupe was the "gold standard" for years for the picture books IMHO, but now it's only available on Kindle, and this book is a great substitution. In some ways, it's better, because it's not as long and really encaptures the love of Our Lady.

I have Tomie's book too, and it is lovely, but I just love Bernier-Grand's book too. If you were to ask which one out of the two to buy I couldn't choose, I'd have to say, buy both
