Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Does anyone know of a good book about St. Juan Diego? Preferably a chapter book for 9 year olds but any book would be great.

Yes! Try the Encounter the Saints series by the Sisters of St. Paul. They are sold through CHC.

We have Tomie De Paola's The Lady of Guadalupe, which tells the story of Juan Diego. It is a picture book, but it is long (with more print per page than many picture books), so it would be appropriate for a 9yo too.
