A children’s account of Catherine of Alexandria

This volume in the *Lives of Saints for Children* series presents Catherine of Alexandria through episodes that place her faith in a public setting: an audience with an emperor and an encounter with philosophers. Its focus is the choices the book associates with her Christian life, including holding to belief under pressure and placing truth and love above comfort. The result is a biographical introduction to a Christian saint, framed around conviction and character rather than a general survey of saints or church history.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children around ages 9–12 interested in Christian saints and their lives.
  • Families seeking a biographical book about Catherine of Alexandria to read or discuss together.
  • Young readers exploring themes of faith, courage, and conviction.

Book overview

She stood before an emperor, faced a room full of philosophers, and never wavered. St. Catherine of Alexandria shows us that even a young woman can change the world when her heart belongs fully to Christ.

 

This book in the Lives of Saints for Children series tells the powerful true story of a princess who chose faith over fear, truth over comfort, and love over everything else.

 

Every parent wants to help their child grow into a person of strong and beautiful character, capable of living a joyful and meaningful life. Children naturally imitate those around them, and the characters they meet in books often become their role models. The most powerful examples are real people-and among them, the most radiant are the saints, whose lives shine with holiness and wisdom.

 

This series presents the lives of Christian strugglers for the faith, beautifully retold for children. Reading these books together can become a cherished family tradition, offering children inspiring examples of love, courage, and goodness-examples that help them grow into better, happier people.
