Once upon a time, but not so very long ago, a little boy lived in the middle of a town in the middle of the Middle West. The boy was named Peter John Sheen, but everyone called him Fulton. And poor Fulton had no idea that as summer came to an end he was about to begin a VERY BAD WEEK.

Fulton Sheen and the Very Bad Week is the retelling of true stories from Venerable Fulton J. Sheen's childhood. With beautiful illustrations and relatable storytelling, young readers will identify with and feel for Fulton as he encounters tough situations and makes mistakes throughout his very bad week. And, like Fulton, they will be reminded that Jesus loves them no matter what.

Written by the mother of Archbishop Sheen's "Miracle Baby," Fulton Sheen and the Very Bad Week is a great way to introduce children, classrooms, and families to America's Bishop.
PRAISE FOR FULTON SHEEN AND THE VERY BAD WEEK

"In this engaging and brilliant new book shining a light on Venerable Fulton Sheen's childhood experiences, Bonnie Engstrom tells the story of holiness through the ordinary that each of my kids can understand. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough for the children in your life!"
- Nell O'Leary, Managing Editor for Blessed Is She and mom of five

"Before he became a Bishop, star of a television show, or candidate for Sainthood, Fulton J. Sheen was a little boy growing up in the Midwest. Through these true stories from Sheen's childhood, young readers are invited to see that everyday experiences are always invitations to trust in God's plan. Relatable, warm, and inspiring- this book is a perfect read-aloud for home and classroom!"
- Katherine Bogner, Author of Through the Year with Jesus and Through the Year with Mary

"Fulton Sheen and the Very Bad Week, thoughtfully written by Bonnie Engstrom and beautifully illustrated by Mariam Khoury Briggs, brings a wonderful message about the journey of faith specifically for young people. I can enthusiastically recommend this book for parents striving to share their own Christ centered experience of living and learning."
- +Most Reverend Daniel Jenky, C.S.C. Bishop of Peoria
