This short chapter book for children relates the life of St. Kateri Tekakwitha, North America's first Native American saint. It is suitable for ages 7 to 9, but is also appropriate for a young Catholic family to read together. In just six chapters, the story takes children from Kateri's birth in what is now Central New York State through the major events of her short, gentle life. It also relates, in simple terms, the history of her slow but steady journey through the traditional channels of the Catholic Church to her canonization in October, 2012. Included at the end is an original prayer to St. Kateri which encourages children to practice her virtues of love, patience, and joy in difficult times
