Saint Patrick

32 pp. | Boyds | January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 1-56397-659-5
(4) K-3 Based on a letter that Saint Patrick wrote late in life, this picture book biography makes the saint's life intelligible to children, though quotes from Patrick are somewhat stiffly interjected into the narrative. Mixed-media illustrations use computer-generated patterns and hyper-saturated color, sometimes producing an oddly contemporary look. Gilded Celtic knots frame the text.
