Today is the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Tomie DePaola has written a beautiful children’s book to educate them about the events that this feast commemorates. The Lady of Guadalupe is quite a detailed re-telling of Juan Diego and how Mary visited him to increase his faith. The illustrations are very Tomie-like, but he does a stunning job with Our Lady’s image.
This is a great book to have in your own home library, but you can likely find it at your local library. It’s a nice one to have on hand for any study about Mary and her apparitions, or names.
