is a magnificent story of another of God's great saints - an example to young girls and Catholics of all ages and time. Catherine was born a pagan princess of Egypt, the land of the Sphinx and Pyramids. In her thirst for knowledge and wisdom she grew into a wise and very lovely young woman. This is an account of Catherine's conversion to Christianity, her ascension to the throne as Queen of Alexandria, the persecution of her Christian subjects by the Romans, and her own suffering at the hands of the Emperor for her love of Christ. Beautiful illustrations help tell her amazing story!
