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.

We got this from the library and am now wondering where I can buy it from. Amazon shows it being out of print, and the copy we are reading is from 1962. Does anyone know if it has been republished by a small Catholic publisher? The same author wrote Sixty Saints for Boys which seems to be more widely available. (but also out of print)

Jen,

I love this book (got it for my 8th Christmas!). Have you tried www.abebooks.com? You might be able to find a used copy there...

Not reprinted, sorry Jen! It's a book to keep you on the hunt. Search on ebay, put a search on abebooks and look on www.bookfinder.com. Right now there are only expensive choices.

Another option...sometimes even harder to find, but comprehensive is her "Story Volumes of the Saints." There are 3 volumes and I think they include all her writings on saints. She's written quite a few books, but most of them are repeated stories. Someone steer me if that's not the case. I have several of her books, included the 3 volume set. The one I don't have is Sixty Saints for Girls...have the boys one.
