(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Leonid Gore. Zarin's folksy, matter-of-fact retellings of saint stories root the iconic figures firmly in the natural world, emphasizing their humanity. Roughly textured black-and-white portraits of slightly stylized, elongated figures with expressive countenances are formally composed inside thematic borders. The tall, slim book with its gold-colored endpapers is a suitably handsome yet humble package, completed with a brief biographical note on each saint.
