Book excerpt: The Life of the Little Flower, first published in 1942, portrays the life of Marie Françoise-Thérèse Martin, best known as ‘Saint Therese of Lisieux’ or ‘The Little Flower of Jesus.’ Saint Therese, born on January 2, 1873, entered a cloistered Carmelite community in Lisieux in Normandy, France at age 15. She was only 24 when she died from tuberculosis on September 30, 1897. Therese was canonized as a saint on May 17, 1925 by Pope Pius XI. She remains one of the most popular saints, and is revered by Catholics and others worldwide as a model of sanctity, devotion, and simplicity. Included are 12 pages of photographs.
