The Story of St. Therese of the Child Jesus teaches the inspiring story of little Therese Martin, who hit upon a plan for becoming a saint when she decided to love God every minute and say “yes” to whatever He asked of her. With this plan for sainthood, St. Therese became one of the best known and most loved saints. Her “Little Way” shows that what God asks of us is simple: to love Him in all that we do. The example of St. Therese will be an inspiration to you and your student!

The author of The Story of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, Mary Fabyan Windeatt, was known as “the storyteller of the saints.” In the 1950s and 60s, she wrote over 20 historical fiction novels on the saints, bringing to life these holy men and women for young readers across the world. Sold individually or in a set of 20, these timeless classics have educated young men and women in virtue since their publication in the 1950s. All the stories tell the lives of saints in an engaging way, detailing their virtues, struggles, and countless adventures.

Accompanied by the detailed Student Workbook and Teacher’s Manual, the lessons in The Story of St. Therese of the Child Jesus will be brought to life! The classic Windeatt book and its companion books will encourage your student to develop his or her reading skills, while also giving an example of holiness to follow.
