Description: |
A Vision book containing the enthralling story of the great
modern apostle of youth, Saint John Bosco, and his best-loved
pupil who became a saint, Dominic Savio. Blessed with
tremendous natural and supernatural gifts, including a wonderful
sense of humor, Saint John Bosco overcame overwhelming obstacles
to help deprived children find a better life. Juggler, magician, acrobat, tailor, teacher and writer--John Bosco became all of these in his efforts to lead boys and girls to God. A prayer was the price of admission to his shows; a friendly contest to match skill or strength was his answer to the hoodlums who laughed at him. As a priest he was known as Don Bosco and built churches and schools. Don Bosco's schools were cheerful places where the school spirit ran high. This story of Saint John Bosco and his pupil, Saint Dominic Savio, will appeal to the young readers of today. Illustrated. Sewn Softcover, 157 pages
