Most recently, in January 2015, the Monk Athos Elder Paisios the Holy Mountaineer was canonized as a saint. The popularly beloved pastor, whose holiness none of those who knew him had any doubts even during his earthly life, left behind several volumes of theological works, spiritual instructions and prophecies. His life is an example of true non-possession and monastic deeds. The life of St. Paisios, replete with spiritual exploits and difficult trials, was wonderfully retold for children by the writer N. E. Chaplinnarrating in a fascinating form in this book about the childhood and youth of the future saint, his spiritual growth in the world and in the monastery, about his innumerable good deeds and the miracles of God that took place through his prayers. The magnificent illustrations of the artist Rossinskaya facilitate the children's perception of the difficult fate of the saint.

The book is intended for independent reading by children of middle and senior school age, as well as for family reading aloud.
