Brother Jerome and the Angels in the Bakery
Reedy Press, 2010. 32 pages, $16.95 hardcover
Angels love to visit Br. Jerome’s monastery bakery because it’s the place that smells the most like heaven. But when the abbot asks the brother to open his bakery to the public, the young monk doubts that he can get customers into the shop to try his breads.
With the encouragement of his abbot and a little angelic assistance, he gains the self-confidence he needs to have a successful bakery. This charming children’s book just received a Christopher Award in the Books for Young People category last month.
