A startlingly beautiful picture-book biography of the woman whose life came to be synonymous with compassion and service of the poor. Demi, who has written about and illustrated the lives of many religious figures, uses gold ink, simple lines, vivid colors, and intricate borders to tell the life story of the little nun who founded an order of sisters to help India’s sick and dying. Demi situates Mother Teresa’s work among the poorest of the poor within the context of her profound faith. This is a wonderful introduction to one of the great human beings of modern times.
