Description
Even as young Paddy cannot sit down still all the way through prayers, he is more than pleased to assist the Irish shepherd Barra watch sheep for the day! But who will watch Paddy when he wanders into the woods. Paddy finds delights and dangers–both deepen his understanding of the prayers of his people. Paddy and the Wolves imagines Saint Patrick as a young boy, weaving a story that uses the saint’s childhood adventures to foreshadow events in Saint Patrick’s adult life. Award-winning Catholic folk artist Jen Norton creates a lush panorama of Paddy’s world, filled with bears and bluebells, flashy fish and furry friends–and grace.
