A Teacher said Horray! Another Susan Peek book!. I was so excited to find out that another Susan Peek book was published! The children at our school were overjoyed, and considered it a great privilege to be able to take turns looking at the book themselves after having it read to the class. This author really knows how to reach the minds and hearts of the young (and of all ages!) We hope that she will continue to publish more book. Teaches Children to Follow God's Will Hanley Another unheard of saint's life explained to children and adults alike. The illustrations bring it to life. Helps children understand how we don't always get what we pray for, for a reason. God rewards us for trying our best at doing His Will.. "Hooray for Mrs. Peek!" according to Sister. I was first introduced to her books for teens (all of which are truly wonder - full!) but have enjoyed reading this new addition to her work for children. What a touching tale, and one filled with good lessons for little minds and hearts. May Mrs. Meek continue to write and inspire her readers of all ages.
