Saint Elizabeth's Three Crowns
by Blanche Jennings Thompson
$9.95 : Sewn Softcover, 168 pages

This new story in the Vision Books series of saints for 9 - 15 year olds. Saint Elizabeth spent her life differently than most saints. Instead of living in poverty like Saint Francis of Assisi, she lived most of her life in a castle surrounded by incredible wealth. Born a princess, by age four she was engaged to be married and sent to live with Louis, her husband-to-be, who was only 10 years old. Elizabeth was ridiculed by those who noticed that she was always trying to be holy. At play she would sneak into chapel for a visit with Jesus. Her subjects never grew accustomed to the queen who lived the life of a saint, but they always appreciated her generosity and saw in her such simplicity and holiness, and this book captures those qualities for today's young readers.
