Book Synopsis

An 11 to year-old girl's young life is turned upside down when Communist troops invade her small village during the 1948 to 49 revolution in China. The soldiers remove her teacher from the school and replace her with a strict instructor who teaches the children to memorize Communist theory. After soldiers desecrate the church, she makes a heroic decision to sneak into the church at night to be with Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament. Many years later her actions inspire Bishop Fulton Sheen.
