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.

This is a wonderful picture book that some of the children from our homeschool community have written, illustrated and published! It's based on a true story about an atheist group that sued a small midwestern town to remove the image of a cross from the town water tower - and how the community responded. Really wonderful, encouraging story in times like these! And it's Christmas-y - so, I know probably too late for families to enjoy this year - but perhaps next?

Blessings!
