My Name Is Philomena: A Saint’s Story

By Fr. Peregrine Fletcher, O.Praem · Published by TAN Books

Overview

In this beautifully illustrated children’s book, the virgin‑martyr Saint Philomena recounts her own story—from her origins as a Greek princess to her courageous martyrdom for Christ. Readers follow her journey of faith and virtue as she rejects earthly power, embraces purity, and overcomes darkness. This vivid retelling brings a lesser‑known saint to life for families and youth through a narrative rooted in Christian witness. 

  • Retells the touching and heroic life of Saint Philomena in simple, child‑friendly language. 
  • Features striking illustrations that bring the saint’s story to life and engage young readers.
  • Presents a compelling model of courage, purity, and faith for children and adolescents. 
  • Makes a worthy addition to family libraries, homeschool collections, parish youth bookshelves, or children’s devotional reading. 
  • Encourages prayer, reflection, and spiritual identity by connecting young readers with a powerful saintly intercessor. 

Intended Audience

For children and families seeking faithful, virtue‑centered stories from the lives of the saints, and for parents, catechists, or youth ministers wishing to introduce a powerful example of Christian holiness and martyrdom to younger readers.
