The Woman and the Angel
Page 1
One day, long ago, there was a young pregnant woman walking by the sea. She saw mussels in the shallow water.
Page 2
The woman walked into the water to collect some mussels. She wanted to cook and eat them.
Page 3
There were many mussels for the young woman to gather. She was very happy, and the cool sea water felt good on her feet.
Page 4
The young woman collected more and more mussels. And she went farther and farther from the shore.

Suddenly, the woman noticed that the water was getting higher. The tide was beginning to rise. She thought, “I should go back to the shore now.”
Page 6
The woman turned around, and only then did she realize how far she was from the shore. She began to hurry, and the tide continued to rise.
Page 7
The woman was going as fast as she could. But the water was up to her knees now, and she could not run. Still, the shore was very far away.
Page 8
The woman knew that she could not reach the shore in time. She was worried that she and the baby she was carrying were going to die.

The woman said a prayer to Saint Michael. She asked him to help her. Saint Michael heard her prayer, and he made a tall hill grow beneath the woman’s feet.

The woman was saved! When she returned to the town, she told everyone about the miracle. People went to the hill and named it Mont San Michel.
