12 Mornings with Mary

I found Mary while at work
in an elementary school library,
among a pile of books.

  2. I didn't know he wrote about La Virgen! I absolutely love Strega Nona and will have to look for The Lady of Guadalupe.

    Yes, She's everywhere, isn't She?

  8. I have a copy of this wonderful book. As some of you may know, I volunteer a lot for my local library and I especially enjoy our monthly used books/media sales in Palos
    Verdes. We always have Paola books for sale.
