  Melia is spellbound by the stuffed wildcat in her family's living room—her cousin swears that it comes to life and roams the streets at night. When she finds a signed note from the animal with secret instructions, a thrilling and dangerous adventure begins. 
   
   
   
  For Melia and her sister Myrto, summer means a break from Grandfather's history lessons and weeks of running free at the seaside with their ragtag group of friends. Best of all, cousin Nikos will visit and tell his fabulous stories about the taxidermied wildcat, which opens its blue glass eye when it wants to do good deeds and its black one when it makes trouble. The black eye must be open lately because all the adults have been acting strangely, arguing about politics and fearful of the police. Soon even the children are divided—who can Melia trust? And can the wildcat help keep her family safe? 
   
   
   
  Set in Greece during the 1930s, when the nation was torn apart by fascism, The Wildcat Behind Glass is an unforgettable tale of family, humanity, and what it means to be free. From its 1963 release to the dozens of international editions and honors that followed, including a Mildred L. Batchelder Award, the novel has enchanted generations of young listeners. Now, a fresh English translation—the first in over fifty years—breathes new life into the timeless story.

  The beautiful friendship between a saint and a beast is how God wanted to remind people of the holiness they can reach through prayers and good deeds. 
  Saint Gerasimus and the Lion is in the Stories of Saints for Children series written especially for children who want to learn about the lives of saints. 
  Saint Gerasimus of the Jordan ( also spelled Gerasimos or Gerasim ) was a Christian saint, monk, and abbot of the 5th century AD. Gerasimus was born into a wealthy family in the province of Lycia, the southern part of Asia Minor, but he left his family's wealth and worldly affairs to become a monk. Saint Gerasimus went to Palestine and settled in the wilderness near the Jordan River. There he established a monastery. He is known for his righteous life of asceticism and prayer. The story of Gerasimus and the lion, when the saint tamed the animal by removing a thorn from its paw and taught it obedience, became widely known in the Christian world. His feast day is celebrated on 4 March by the Eastern Orthodox Church and on 5 March by the Roman Catholic Church.
