The Life of St. Catherine of Siena by Blessed Raymond Of Capua George

The Life of St. Catherine of Siena by Blessed Raymond Of Capua George

This is a highly interactive book, which is read aloud by a parent with active participation by a pre-reader, who helps answer questions throughout the book. Tn the story, Jason needs a little help as he makes his way through a delightful day. Parents can look at the pictures with their children and discuss possible answers that would help Jason.

Discussing and answering these questions is not only fun - it will also help children develop thinking and reasoning skills. The types of questions are similar to the popular Brain Quest cards, but the questions are woven through a fun narrative of Jason's day.

Blessed Raymond of Capua was born at Capua, Italy in 1330. Known as the second founder of the Dominican order, he became prior of the Dominican house in Rome after attending the University of Bologna. He became both friend and spiritual director to St. Catherine of Siena from 1376, and eventually became her closest advisor. After laboring to bring assistance and comfort to the victims of a plague that struck Siena, he caught the disease himself and was nursed back to health by St. Catherine. He was elected head of the Dominican order after her death, and died at Nuremnberg. Bishop Raymond is the author of two biographies on Catherine of Siena and St. Agnes of Montepulciano. His feast is celebrated on October 5.
