| Publisher Description: "It's almost upon us!" yelled a frantic voice as the ship neared the iceberg. "God's Will be done," prayed Mother Marie. If God wanted her to drown in the icy Atlantic Ocean before ever reaching Canada, may His Holy Will be done. Yet what happened next is what the Sisters experienced -- one adventure after another in a quest to bring the One, Holy, and Apostolic Catholic Faith to Canada. Mary Fabyan Windeatt was known as "the storyteller of the saints." In the 1950's and 60's she wrote over twenty historical fiction novels on the saints, bringing to life these holy men and women for young readers across the world. By artistically rendering familiar stories, the Windeatt books help readers see that the saints are real people whom we can emulate. Ideal for all children, especially those enrolled in TAN Academy in the fourth through sixth grades for easy reading literature. |
