Benedict & the Rule

By Katie Warner · Published by TAN Books

Overview

Uncover the life and remarkable legacy of one of the Church’s most beloved saints. Benedict & the Rule is a beautifully illustrated introduction to Saint Benedict, highlighting his miracles, his lasting impact, and his famous “little rule for beginners,” known today as the Rule of Saint Benedict. Revered by monasteries and convents throughout the world, the Rule’s wisdom also offers surprising guidance for children and families seeking a more peaceful, prayerful, and ordered life.

Written especially for young readers, this book invites children to see Saint Benedict not as a distant figure of history, but as a spiritual father who can shape daily life with gentleness and clarity. Along the way, families are introduced to the idea of a simple Rule of Life: practical habits inspired by Benedictine wisdom that help a child grow in virtue, obedience, gratitude, and love for God in ordinary moments.

Whether read aloud at home or shared in a classroom, Benedict & the Rule encourages children and adults alike to discover the joy of small, faithful practices that form the heart over time.

  • Introduce children to the life, miracles, and legacy of Saint Benedict
  • Teach a simple, approachable “Rule of Life” for everyday family living
  • Form habits of virtue through practical, child-friendly guidance
  • Engage young readers with gorgeous illustrations and clear storytelling
