Patrick : Patron Saint of Ireland

Description

Tomie dePaola recounts the life of Saint Patrick; from his noble birth in Britain, to his captivity in Ireland, to the visions which led him to return and found the first Christian church in Ireland. dePaola recounts a number of legends about the Saint; including the well-known story of how he drove the snakes from Ireland, and his association with the shamrock. We absolutely love this book in which the main events of his life and ministry are covered, and legends.
