I bought this book for my son, and we read it together. It relates the beautiful story of the future saint as a boy and as a man. All catholic children will benefit from this book. I highly recommend it.

This book was recommended to me by one of the Sister Servants of the Eternal World in Birmingham, AL. I was on retreat and we were discussing saints and miracles over lunch. :) Sister Clare Marie recommended this book heartily as a good book for both parents and children (though the Vision Series of Saints books of which this book is one were written for young people). I did not know much about Pope St. Pius X and this book has caused me to develop quite a devotion to him. This would be an excellent book for young boys to read as St. Pius was a supreme example of a holy man who knew how to laugh and have fun but never compromised in his beliefs or faith. Eventually, he became so holy that he was was given the gift of healing. Highly recommend this book; it is an easy read for all ages.

I Have a real passion for His Holiness Pope St. Pius x, this means that i have read books about him and his life, but this was the absolute best, it is an easy and real fun read. I do recommend this for all ages
