Description
When Kathleen Edwards ten-year-old god-daughter saw Kathleens drawing of St. Francis surrounded with animals and birds, she said "Whos that?" The artist explained briefly who he was and then the child asked, "Whats that circle around his head?" Kathleen was inspired to create this book by the realisation that there are probably lots of people who not only dont know what a halo is, but may know little or nothing about the prominent religious figures of the world. She believes that respect for the cultural and spiritual significance of all religions is one pathway that can bring the worlds peoples together. Many comparative religion books explain beliefs and traditions and other books describe sacred figures from a single religion, but "Holy Stars!" contains brief, beautifully illustrated biographies of 27 of the most popular holy personalities from all over the world. The elegant line drawings combine with hand-lettered text to make a lovely gift book for all ages.
