Holy Men and Women of America:
After creating the America the Beautiful series of projects several years ago, I always intended to come back and create a book list for holy men and women from the United States of America. Whether you are working on a unit, doing some patriotic reading over the summer, or looking to add some local saints to your shelf, here are some books I would recommend about these American Saints! (or Blesseds, Venerables, and Servants of God!)
This list contains Amazon Affiliate links, which means if you click through and make a purchase, I earn a small commission at no cost to you. I'd also love to encourage you to shop directly with the publisher or with your local bookshop, or try to request these at your local library! I'm sure I've missed some books that would be great for this month, so feel free to add your own recommendations in the comments! You can find my giant list of Catholic Kid Books by topic here.
