Children of Fatima Windeatt (Comprehension Set)

Mary Fabyan Windeatt

Mary Fabyan Windeatt was known as “the storyteller of the saints.” In the 1950’s and 60’s she wrote over twenty histor­ical fiction novels on the saints, bringing to life these holy men and women for young readers across the world.

TAN Books now offers these companion workbooks to her beloved novels. Each workbook is meant to test your student’s read­ing comprehension, instruct them on matters of the Catholic faith, and bring them closer to each of these great saints. Through engaging and fun activities like crossword puzzles and word searches, as well as through essays and challenging multiple choice questions, they will come to better know the content and sanctity found in each story.

This workbook set accompanies The Children of Fatima and Our Lady’s Message to the World. The events at Fatima have been called the most miraculous occurrences since Biblical times, with repercussions that spread across the entire globe. It is a story that every young person should come to know, both to understand the message Our Lady gave us, and to learn the virtues of the three young shepherd children Our Lady visited.

Mary Fabyan Windeatt lived from 1910-1979 and grew up in Saskatchewan, Canada. The Mount Saint Vincent College awarded her a Licentiate of Music degree when she was just seventeen, and she began writing Catholic works when she was about twenty-four. Later she sent one of her stories to a Catholic magazine, and after it was accepted, she continued to write. In total she composed at least twenty-one children 's books, as well as periodical children 's pages written for The Torch, a monthly Dominican magazine. Mary Windeatt is most renowned for her many novels of the saints, which she wrote specifically for children, including lives on the Children of Fatima, Cure of Ars, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Rose of Lima and many others. After living with her mother in St. Meinrad, Indiana, she died on the twentieth of November, 1979.
