- Synopsis
- Uncover the "sunshine" of a Mohawk-Algonquin girl who experiences loss, ostracism, and religious persecution, yet courageously holds on to her faith. Perfect for ages 9-12, this 31st volume in the Encounter the Saints series familiarizes children with the first Native American woman to be declared a saint. Her life story is set within colonialism that brought undesirable consequences and tribal tensions that intensified with the arrival of Christian missionaries. The Encounter the Saints series offers intermediate readers relatable portrayals of the saints. Each story, in a handy format, vividly recreates the saint's place of origin, family life, and corresponding historical events.
