Mother Mary Alphonsa was Rose Hawthorne Lathrop. She and her husband converted to Roman Catholicism. She founded a hospital providing free care for cancer victims. After being widowed, she became a nun, founding a Dominican Order.
This was not one of my favorites, but admittedly that is probably because the religious aspects went somewhat over my head. From the book, I really didn't understand the extent of her accomplishments. Having read more about them, I would probably be interested in an adult biography. I think that Catholic families would probably enjoy this more. ( )
