Cory Sticha</b>, Pastor, St. Mary's Parish, Malta, Montana <p/> "Beautifully written, capturing the readers' attention and imagination, this is a wonderful weaving of the lives of saints with those of the characters. The <i>Chime Travelers</i> books capture many questions children this age ask about their faith and how can they truly serve God." --<b>Carmie Gennock</b>, Catholic school teacher <p/> "Hendey's wonderfully imaginative and faith-filled stories will delight young readers, while at the same time deepening their understanding of central Catholic beliefs: the saints, the sacraments, active love for family, friends, and strangers, and active life in a Church community. In the spirit of the parables, Jesus' preferred mode of teaching, Hendey's books delightfully achieve two goals at the same time: enchanting our imaginations and deepening our faith. Present-day kids meet centuries-old saints in stories that are at once surprising and compelling." --<b>Rev.
