The Iron Spy
Book One of the American Saints in Progress Series
by Joan Stromberg
It’s 1875 and in the dark mines of the hills of Pennsylvania where coal is king, the Molly Maguires rule with
terrorism. Could they have finally come to the sleepy iron ore town of Danville? After an explosion at the
biggest iron mill in town, 12-year-old Mary Mulhearn tries to clear her father of suspected Molly Maguire
terrorism. Daughter of an Irish immigrant, Mary must use all her faith, her wits, and even her quick feet to stay
one step ahead of the company spy. But who could he really be? An adventure story for ages 10 and up. Also
available on the Amazon Kindle.
The Iron Spy..... $7.95
“What a refreshing read! It is an engaging story with authentic Christian virtures. I wish there were more books
like this!” - review by SMM on Amazon.com
“In this first book of the new series The Danville Chronicles, Joan Stromberg has found a fun and exciting
way to teach faith to your children ten years and older. It will capture their imagination and keep their minds
thinking... What better kind of book could you ask for than a Catholic history mystery that will not let your mind
wander or let your eyes drift from its thrilling pages?” -lovetolearn.net
The Search for the Madonna
Book Two of the American Saints in Progress Series
by Donna Alice Patton
Times are tough, especially for Maggie Brandenburg and her twin sister, Em, who are trying to help Aunt
Sophie keep her Midwestern strawberry farm running during the Great Depression. Can Maggie overcome her
own fears and help save the farm? Dreaming of a bright future without any more worries, Maggie is determined to unlock the secrets of the legendary, lost Brandenburg treasure. But will she find the treasure before
the bank takes the farm away? Will she be brave and smart enough to outwit hole-digging ghosts, mysterious
house guests, and long-lost relatives? Follow Maggie as she learns to trust the Blessed Mother and as she finds
her own courage while searching for a beautiful and priceless family heirloom - the Brandenburg Madonna!
An adventure story for ages 10 and up. Also available on the Amazon Kindle.
The Search for the Madonna..... $7.95
“The Search for the Madonna by Donna Alice Patton is one of the most refreshing books I’ve read in a very long
time... The reader learns so much about the Depression years, about how people did so much with so little. [The
author] never cheats on little details like how most people walked instead of driving cars or how their main source
of entertainment was radio shows... Sprinkled throughout this tale of finding faith and security are tidbits which
evoke pleasant memories of strawberry jam simmering or the spicy scent of pickles cooking. Donna Alice Patton
brings all this to life in a book destined to find a place in many hearts. I recommend The Search for the Madonna
for all readers, be they boy or girl. It’s a journey into the past made memorable by how much it applies to the present.” - review by K.C. Sprayberry

“This was a gift for my nephew who really enjoys reading, [and] he really enjoyed this book! ”
-A review by R. Caputo on Amazon.com
“Our family has been a fan of Blessed Miguel Pro
since first reading about him a few years ago, so I was
happy to find this book to read to my boys. This book
mixes fact (about Miguel Pro and others who suffered to
defend the Catholic faith) with fiction (the story of what
happened to a little boy rescued by Father Miguel) and
creates an inspirational story of faith, love, and family “
-A review by L.D. on Amazon.com
“Ann Ball’s favorite saint was Blessed Miguel Pro,
so she wrote the children’s book José Finds the King: A
Blessed Miguel Pro Story. She hoped her grandchildren
would come to know and love Miguel as much as she did by
reading it. I know it helped me to love him more! My hope
is the same for the children who enjoy the activities in this
book. May the humor, prayerfulness, and bravery of Blessed
Miguel reach them and guide them in drawing closer to the
Lord. ”
