Saints and Angels: edited by Carron Brown

This book was so interesting! The book discusses the major saints of the Christian and Catholic faiths, specifying dates that are important and correlate with the Saints. There are pages for all the major saints within the Catholic faith especially, and broken down among different groups, such as the Holy Family, the Gospel Writers, martyrs and so on. I think this book would be great for use as a reference when discussing different holidays from different religions. I think that multicultural holidays are a great way in introduce children to different cultures and have them aware of a cultural mindset far before it is normally discussed. I think that opening their eyes to a facet of a well-established faith would also allow them to delve further into other cultures, allowing them to see different aspects of a lot of different cultures. I’m not sure if I would read this book aloud, simply because of the content, but I do think it would be a neat book to have in one’s library for students to reference when discussing other cultures, including religions.
