"Hello, my little friend. I am little, too."

This is how children first get to know St. Therese of Lisieux, and how appropriate an introduction from the saint who once said, "in spite of my littleness, I can hope to be a saint." This is the desire of every parent and grandparent, to raise happy and holy children who are formed in the faith and grow to live lives of discipleship.

That might be a lot to ask of a toddler's board book, but the simple messages in I Am Little, Too -- that we were created by God, that we are unique, that we have a special mission, and that God loves us -- can be introduced early in life and reinforced again and again as they grow.

These high-quality board books are just the right size for chubby hands to hold, and bright and colorful to attract curious little eyes and minds. Nighttime, quiet time, or any time, this is sure to become a family favorite you'll be reaching for again and again.

The mission continues

The founder of Tiny Saints, Joe Klinker, and the talented illustrator Manuel Corsi, bring you six new board books telling stories of the saints and how they lived, each with a powerful message that will begin to inspire little minds and hearts to turn to God.

Tiny Saints board books can:

• Begin to build a child's Catholic identity at an early age
• Teach children about virtues modeled by the saints
• Invoke the intercession of the saints as a family
• Introduce children to color, shape, and sound
