Born a humble girl in what is now Albania, Agnes Bojaxhiu lived a charitable life.

While teaching in India, where famine and violence had devastated the poor, Teresa shed her habit and walked the streets of Calcutta tending to the needs of the destitute.

I have read all the books, and I still can't get over them. My son, who is 9, has been reading them for a little over a year now and they are wonderful. Yes, he's a history junkey. He so far seems to love the Jackie Robinson, Teddy Roosevelt, Robert E Lee, What is the world series the best as a kid? Sometimes I read them before or after my son to have an educated discussion about the book. I get out of them a lot, too, because they are so difficult to get into.

Full disclosure, I haven't read this myself, but my fifth-grade students have and they love it. You won't find this book on my bookshelf because someone is always reading it.

I knew who she was but this book gave me more info. This book made me a little cry we complain alot about our lives but as u read it u saw people who have serious injuries and suffer allot. I recommend this book to my friends so they can learn about people who change the world. This is a really good book for kids, so they can learn about history, Rowling said. But U can use a dictionary or digital dictionary and U will learn new words too. If you enjoy reading, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Less enjoyable of these books.

We read these books a lot but this one had way too many foreign words in it that the kids and I spent so much time trying to pronounce that we lost interest. She was from another country, but dang, this was more heavy on the foreign words than others we've read.
