Mother Teresa by Demi is a beautifully illustrated biography of a most interesting life.  Mother Teresa was born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu.  She felt the call of religious life at the age of twelve. Agnes learned of a group of nuns from Ireland that were working in India.  At age 18, Agnes joined the Loretto Abbey in Ireland.  She learned English quickly. She chose the name of Sister Mary Teresa after the French Teresa of Lisieux. In 1929, Sister Mary Teresa left Ireland and traveled to India where she became a Loreto novice. She began teaching school and then helping the sick.  Sister Mary Teresa continued doing good works in India until her death in 1997.

Demi has other books on subjects of religious leaders such as Buddha and Muhammad.
