Catholic Books for Children

1) Brother Rafael and the Rainy-Day Devils –  WOW, this book is so relatable for parents!  I know that this is a kids book, but I absolutely love it!  Brother Rafael illustrates how we encounter spiritual warfare in our everyday lives.  It’s not a scary book, but it does show the reality of letting temptations affect our thoughts and moods.  It was over the head of my little 3 year old, but I think the bigger kids would like it. This book teaches us how to fight battles for God even when we are little. (10% off with code HEATHER10)

2) The Snail and the King – At first I was not sure where this book was going, but once I understood the message, I loved it!  The Snail and the King reminded me of Narnia but for younger children around 4-10 years old. It is a story about a snail that is trying to get to a boat that will get him to the king’s castle (heaven), and along the hard road a dove (Holy Spirit) helps him to get there on time.  I really liked this story and so did my children! 

3) Go and Fear Nothing – This wonderful story is about Sister Adeles Brise and Our Lady of Champion.  Mary appeared to Adele in Wisconsin in 1859.  Mary gave her a message that is still important for today’s time.  I truly enjoyed this story and was glad to hear that the Church has approved this apparition! 

4) The Adventures of Loupio –  This was a adventure that my son Zachary (age 8) enjoyed!  Fun to read and teaches virtue at the same time! 10% off with code HEATHER10

5) Grandma’s Best Stories – These are lots of little stories in this sweet book!  It was fun and refreshing to hear a different kind of story. 10% off with code HEATHER10

In Christ,

Hi, I’m Heather, and I’m so happy you’re here.

I’m a Catholic wife, mama to five beautiful children, homemaker, home chef, and the heart behind A Catholic Mom’s Life. In this little corner of the internet, I love sharing the beauty of Catholic motherhood, faith-filled family traditions, cozy homemaking inspiration, heartfelt prayers, and all the little things that help make a house feel more like a holy home.

My greatest joy is my vocation as a wife and mother, and through my YouTube videos, blog posts, and favorite finds, my hope is to encourage women to fall deeply in love with Christ and discover the peace, joy, and beauty that can be found in living the Catholic faith every day.

So grab a cup of coffee, stay awhile, and make yourself at home — I am so glad our paths crossed.
