Book summary

Mosaic style illustrations accompany this picture book retelling of the legend of Saint Valentine and Valentine's day. Valentine is a gentle Christian doctor living in Rome at the time of the Christian persecutions. He develops a friendship with a blind girl that is cut short when he is arrested by Roman soldier. As he is being taken to prison, he passes the girl's father a note for the girl, which when delivered to her restores her sight.

Publisher Notes


A physician and a Christian priest in a time when Christians were persecuted, Valentine miraculously restores a blind girl's sight in "this retelling of a story about a saint martyred in A.D. 270. . . . Using thousands of tiny rectangular pieces resembling tiles, Sabuda replicates the effect of Roman mosaics. . . . An unusual and attractive rendition".--"Kirkus Reviews". Full color.
