| This is a beautifully illustrated biography of the woman who became Mother Teresa. | |
Teaching Ideas: |
|
| Readers can compare the book's portrayal of Mother Teresa to WWW versions of her life. Readers could keep a timeline to see the progression of her social activism. Students will want to research the caste system in India and perhaps compare the lives of lower or untouchables with life of impoverished people in US. Some students may be interested in researching the process one goes through to be named a saint. | |
