Award-winning writer Joe Drape chronicles the unlikely alliance between Father Hotze and Dr. Andrea Ambrosi, a country priest and a cosmopolitan Italian canon lawyer, as the two piece together the life of a long dead Korean War hero and military chaplain and fashion it into a case for eternal divinity. The Saint Makers offers a front row seat to the Catholic Church's saint-making machinery -- which has changed little in two thousand years -- and examines how, or if, faith and science can co-exist. The Saint Makers leads readers from the plains of Kansas to the opulent halls of the Vatican, and into the modest ranch homes of the two individuals, Avery Gerleman and Chase Kear, whose lives were threatened by illness and injury and whose family and friends prayed to Father Kapaun, sparking miraculous recoveries in the heart of America. Gerleman is now a nurse. Kear works as a mechanic in the aerospace industry. Both remain devoted to Father Kapaun. In many ways, his sainthood lies in their belief and medical charts. Most of all, The Saint Makers is the story of a journey of faith -- for two priests separated by seventy years, for the two young athletes who were miraculously brought back to life with (or without) the intervention of the divine, as well as for readers -- and the author -- trying to understand and accept what makes a person truly worthy of the Congregation of Saints in the eyes of the Catholic Church.

Style and function A++++
Color: Love Bugs Taupe Leather, Size: 12-18 Months Toddler
These are the shoes every pre-walker, and early walker should wear. Foot protection, while properly developing muscles for balance. Robeez is the benchmark for baby shoes with style.

Great shoe (but definitely runs large)!
Color: Reach for the Stars Cream, Size: 0-6 Months Infant
We love these shoes! Our very active little girl was getting blisters on her toes going barefoot, so we wanted some developmentally safe protection for her feet. Robeez shoes are backed by the American Podiatric Medical Association and fit the guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics. On top of that, these shoes are just a great product! They are easy for caregivers to put on, but difficult for babies to take off; the leather offers great grip and protection (no more blisters!), but are breathable enough to prevent sweaty feet; the top lip of the shoe doesn’t rub her ankle; the materials are quality (no staining/color transfer or weak stitches); and they are absolutely adorable to boot!! The only quibble I have is the innacurate sizing. The 0-6 month size I ordered fits my 10 month old’s feet perfectly. When I was shopping I measured her feet at 4.25-4.5 inches (11-11.5 cm), but ordered down a size based on reviews. I’m very glad I did! That small matter aside, I could not be more pleased with these little shoes!
