Seeing is believing . . . or is it?
This intriguing and fun book investigates 12 mysterious, inexplicable cases that have happened in the history of the Catholic faith, some of which still continue to happen or remain today. These cases consider such questions as:
- Did the sun really dance at Fatima before 70,000 people?
- Did a Host from a Mass actually turn into human flesh?
- Whose face appears on the Shroud of Turin, and how did it get on it?
- What happens with the Holy Fire at the Holy Sepulcher every Holy Saturday evening?
- Why does the bell of Rocamadour sometimes ring for no reason?
- Who was the mysterious carpenter that built a spiral staircase without nails that stands by itself?
- How did the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe get painted on the tilma of Juan Diego?
- How do the bodies of some saints remain intact and never corrupt?
These and many other questions are explored in the 12 investigations into extraordinary cases that invite us to think deeply about mysterious events and our faith in God.

Let customers speak for us
from 6053 reviewsMy kids love it and we love it too. It’s so inspiring book
I had borrowed this book from a friend years ago and wanted to purchase my own copy to use in our homeschool. My son is a new server at a TLM Mass and it is helping him with his movements as well.
I really like the Prayer Cards on Carlo Acutis. I wish I could afford to get them for each of the 250 children in our CCD program. I'm glad to have them for our 2nd graders.
They are beautiful
I love them! I'll be giving them to my 8th grade CCD students.
Great love it
It is compact, complete, and easy to keep by your bed or in a purse or pocket.
Good price , nice size and awesome information in the back.
The narration was so engaging that my kids were captivated from start to finish. It made the story memorable without feeling overwhelming. I especially loved how it highlighted the Knights of the Immaculata—my children really understood the beautiful distinction between knights who serve a country and knights who serve our Lord. A wonderful balance of being thorough yet approachable. Highly recommend!
I teach 2nd grade catechism can’t wait to give my students his holy card and share his story with them.
Thumbs up!
Beautiful and succinct commentary on the rosary. The best I’ve ever read. Worth every penny and more.
Great quality and greater reminders of the simple steps to holiness.
The cards were beautiful and made with sturdy card stock
There are many different holy pictures on the cards which is a nice variety. They are lovely to look at and are an additional enhancement to the Divine Praises.
Our kids love this book. We also appreciated the layout, the pictures, and the variety of what and where the miracles were and all about. Great book for the whole family!
The design is fantastic for curious children with lots of pictures and nice broken up reads to study and ponder these beautiful mysteries. It helps my older children who read share the stories with their younger siblings who cannot read yet, and still keeps the older ones wonderfully engaged.
I bought three copies of this book! 1 for my house, 1 for my grandson for his first Holy Communion and 1 for my Godson. There is just enough mystery in the book to keep the kids interested and curious!
My grandson loves it!
My 9 year old son and I are fascinated by the "cases" in this book.
My 7 year old has a similar book that he loves (filled with unexplained mysteries like Bigfoot, UFOs, etc.), so I thought he would enjoy this one as well. I was not wrong! We read one mystery together before he goes to bed at night, and he usually ends up turning out the lights way later than bedtime because of the great discussions we end up having. I'm surprised at how much I am learning along with him. I'm in my 40s, and have never heard of some of these!
Highly recommend this book! The format is visually appealing, and the snatches of information all over the pages (as opposed to long paragraphs covering fewer pages) makes it easy for kids to read and retain. Knowing that these mysteries are real phenomenon that confirm our faith makes it extra fascinating!
