The Little Flower: A Parable of St. Therese of Lisieux - Paperback

by Becky Arganbright (Author)

Young Thérèse Martin loved Jesus so much, she wanted to do something great for him. But she was too little to do big things for Jesus...or was she?

In The Little Flower: A Parable of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux is the delightful story of how St. Thérèse learned to be the "little flower" in God's garden, and that even the smallest thing, when done with great love, is precious in God's eyes. This is the perfect introduction to the "little way" that children will treasure. Includes a biography of the beloved saint.
