“Cath-Lit Live!” features brief interviews with Catholic authors who are releasing new books. Hosted by Catholic author and speaker Amy J. Cattapan, “Cath-Lit Live!” gives viewers a glimpse into the latest Catholic books while getting to know a bit about the author as well.

Wisdom Finds a Way by Cathy Gilmore, illustrated by Jeanie Egolf

Tiny Virtue Hero, Amel the camel, can’t see the wisdom of following a star to bring gifts to a baby in tiny Bethlehem. But Amel learns a lot from the love, prayer, and sacrifice of his hero, wise king Balthazar, with whom he meets the King of Kings!

About the illustrator: Jeanie Egolf is a retired physician-turned-homeschooling-mom/author/illustrator/publisher. She has written 4 of her own books, plus served as illustrator, designer, and/or Art Director for almost 100 books and projects since 2009, the year she sold her Internal Medicine practice to stay home with her children, one of whom has special needs. Jeanie is also a catechist at St. Patrick parish. Her family enjoys playing music, sports, and rescuing various animals.
