Summary/Annotation -> From his very first day of life, when he
rises from his bath to pray to God, it is clear that Nicholas is
a miraculous child with a spiritual destiny. As he grows he is
deeply saddened by the sickness, suffering, and death that he
witnesses every day. Looking to use his special gifts to affect
change in the often desperate world around him, Nicholas
dedicates his life to worshiping the Lord and helping those in
need. Through his good works, Nicholas becomes the youngest man
to ever become a bishop and the patron saint of seafarers,
children, and prisoners. He performs more than twenty miracles,
including bringing those wrongly killed back to life and going
to people in need as an apparition, providing solace and
inspiration.InThe Legend of Saint Nicholas,Demi describes

connection with Christmas and our modern-day Santa Claus. Demi's
