Although by no means a private revelation, this labor of love, written by Saint John Eudes almost seventeen hundred years after the holy events, reads as if the mind of the saint was guided and protected from error by the Mother of God herself. Never, in the history of the Church, had any tribute to Our Lady's childhood been composed which so marvelously applies so many texts of holy scripture with sound Catholic doctrine and the wisdom of her confessors. Where do we begin if we are ever to become like the little children God wishes us to emulate? Why not begin by contemplating the immaculate life of the precious and most humble maiden of Nazareth.
