The story begins with the traditional symbols of the day that are often found in schoolrooms, such as shamrocks, harps, and leprechauns. Then the narrative moves to a short biography of Saint Patrick himself: as a shepherd, as a missionary, and as a teacher. This colorfull boardbook ties together the live of Patrick with the traditional images of Ireland.

By A Customer
This review is from: Story of Saint Patrick's Day (Board book)
We have several of the books in this series and have enjoyed them all, until now. The Story of St. Patrick is choppy and does not give a final thought about God's love. I highly recommend The Story of ... Jesus, Noah, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter, but the St. Patrick's day book is more of a novelty.

This review is from: Story of Saint Patrick's Day (Board book)
I really enjoyed this book because it was little, cute, and perfect for kindergarten and first graders. I originally went to Borders book store and with no success ended up purchasing this book from Amazon. The selection at borders was pitiful.

Great Book for Anyone Who Doesn't Know the Origin of the Holiday,

This review is from: Story of Saint Patrick's Day (Board book)
I bought this for my class for St. Patty's Day. Being a Christian preschool teacher, I was so excited to learn the religious roots of the holiday. As a kid I never really knew myself why we celebrated. Just goes to show you--you learn new things every day.
