Product Description

This wonderful book links all the elements of her life into one intimate, flowing and absolutely enthralling story - relating details of her beautiful, holy mother; her noble and pious father; her great and generous sisters, all of whom entered the convent; plus her own story - from her infancy to her early entrance into Carmel at 15, to her death at age 24. Toward the end of her life, St. Therese came to an understanding of her own spiritual advancement, for she made several predictions that all came true: That her Story of a Soul should be published as soon as possible, that she would let fall a shower of roses on the whole world when she died, that she would assist anyone who called upon her for aid, and finally, that the whole world will love her. And it does! The Little Flower is probably the best known and loved Saint of all time. Also explains St. Therese's devotion to the Holy Face - and shows how it made her a Saint. A great gift!

Best Uses: Older Readers; Reference;
Describe Yourself: Casual Reader;
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
This book is wonderful in regards to the biographical history of St. Therese. It reveals God's hand in the development of St. Therese, even before she was born. The book however, fails to expound on her writings, thoughts and revelations into her relationship with Our Lord. While it touches on the surface of her love for our Lord and her devotion, it lacks depth and spiritual insight, almost as if it was intentionally withheld by the author! What this book did for me was create a thirst for more insight into St. Therese and her Love for God, that perhaps can be found in her manifest and thru prayer and mediation! It's a good read but don't expect too much spiritual guidance.
