Carlo Acutis: Blessed are the Righteous pb

Carlo Acutis was an ordinary teenager who enjoyed soccer, computers, and video games, but he was also committed to Mass, confession, and prayer. He used his computer skills to help people understand the teachings of the Church and to teach about the Eucharist. He was beatified by Pope Francis on October 10, 2020.

Saints are real-life heroes of faith who inspire us to become more like Christ. In this series of beautifully illustrated books for early and young readers ages four to nine, these true stories come to life and connect the children of today with the virtues known as the Beatitudes, which Jesus spotlighted in his Sermon on the Mount.
