The amazing life of Saint Teresa of Ávila comes to life in this full-color Shoujo-Manga style graphic novel for children ages 9-12!
Young Teresa dreams of running away from her home in Spain to convert the Moors and be a martyr for God. As she gets older, Teresa continues to be a troublemaker for her family—but this time, by putting her social life and status before her relationship with God. Her father and older sister send her to study with the Carmelite nuns in the hope that she will learn obedience and discipline. But when Teresa comes home from the convent, they realize they got more than they had bargained for: Teresa had heard Jesus' call to follow him as a Carmelite nun. Journey with Teresa as she travels throughout Spain to reform the Carmelite Order with courage, wit, and wisdom, and call her sisters—and the world—to the heights of prayer and the deep joy of a living relationship with God.
