Our Lady of Guadalupe
1 pp · religious

Juan Diego, a widower, encounters a mysterious voice calling from Tepeyac Hill as he travels to Mass, instructing him to ask the bishop to build a chapel in her honor. When the bishop doubts his story, Juan returns to the hill where he receives a miraculous sign to prove his claim—and sets in motion the building of what would become one of the world's most visited sanctuaries. This 1947 account celebrates the spiritual faith and perseverance behind a beloved Mexican pilgrimage site.

Conquest of Texas Fever
5 pp · non-fiction · pencils ? [as Wal or Val] · inks ? [as Wal or Val]

By 1889, Texas fever was decimating America's cattle herds, and ranchers desperately needed answers—so the Department of Agriculture assigned their best investigator, Theobald Smith, to crack the mystery. Through careful observation and controlled experiments, Smith traced the disease from infected cattle to a peculiar culprit, uncovering how the microbe spreads and developing a solution that would save millions of animals. This true story celebrates the scientific detective work that transformed animal husbandry and revealed a fundamental truth about disease transmission.

The Mice In Council
3 pp · anthropomorphic-funny animals

A young mouse calls his fellow villagers to council with an ambitious plan to protect them from their feared enemy: hang a bell on the cat so they'll have warning of its approach. The mice enthusiastically embrace the scheme—until an elder poses a question that exposes a flaw no one had considered, delivering the timeless lesson that good intentions mean little without a practical way to carry them out.

Albertus Magnus
5 pp · non-fiction; religious

In twelfth-century Europe, the learned Albert pursues a life devoted to both scholarship and faith, studying medicine, chemistry, and theology while wrestling with his calling to the Church. After joining the Order of Preachers, Albert rises from lecturer to provincial leader to bishop, earning renown for his teaching at Europe's greatest universities—where he mentors the brilliant young Thomas of Aquinas—while remaining humble and rooted in his Dominican vows. His decades of tireless study, preaching, and service stand as a testament to a life where intellectual rigor and spiritual devotion never conflict, inspiring generations to come.
