This Morning on the Catholic Morning Show:
We talk with Dr. John Wood A.K.A. Sir Rolland Paterlot (Pen Name) about his book series "The Seven Deadly Dragons: The Chronicles of Sir Rolland Paterlot" an epic book series for kids ages 7-12.
"About Dr. John R. Wood (aka Sir Rolland Paterlot): He is the author of ten books, including one of Dynamic Catholic's bestsellers: “Ordinary Lives, Extraordinary Mission: 5 Steps to Winning the War Within.” As a highly engaging speaker, John has inspired thousands with his talks to embrace the message of the Universal Call to Holiness. He is the president of the non-profit organization Extraordinary Mission. John, his wife Kristin, and their five children have a 2nd Grade Sacramental Family Retreat called “Dragon Slayers” that is designed to inspire parents and children to become saints. Out of over 600 applicants, Dragon Slayers was a finalist in the 2021 Our Sunday Visitor Catholic Innovation Challenge as one of the best new innovative ideas in the country, and was a catalyst in creating The Seven Deadly Dragons book series.
THE ADVENTURE BEGINS as young Sir Rolland enrolls in the secret Dragon Slayers Academy in his quest to become a Knight of Light.
In this first chronicle, Sir Rolland comes to discover what a real dragon is, and he is badly wounded by the first and deadliest of all dragons. With the help of his guild master and a legendary Lady of Grace, he must find healing and learn the weapon and armor needed to obtain the greatest and only real power to slay a dragon.
This series also duels as a retreat and an examination of conscience for adults and our young people.
