November, a month of remembrance; remembering the souls in purgatory and those who gave their lives for us in war.

According to Thomas Hood (1799–1845), it is also a month of: "No sun, no moon; no morn, no noon...no warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease." ('November'). But here at Don Bosco Publications, we have lots of warmth, cheerfulness and healthful ease to offer. So, wrap up warm and curl up with a good book to brighten your day, and join us as we rush headlong to Advent.

What is your name? There is much to be learned from the lives of people who have shown courage in adversity. Many lived hundreds of years ago, some before the birth of Christ. However many of the issues they faced, conflict, jealousy, bullying and ridicule, are still with us today. This book not only details the life of each individual but also poses questions related to the text. These questions give us the opportunity to discuss the issues and help us to make choices about some of the challenges life presents in modern times. At the end of each text there is a list of variations of each name. Can I find my name? Can I find the name of my friends or relatives? 101 Saints and special people gives a fresh and interesting look at the lives of people who trusted in God.
