Meet the young Chinese martyr whose love for the Eucharist inspired Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen.
When Communist troops invade her village during the 1948 Chinese Communist Revolution, eleven-year-old Pei's life is turned upside down. Food is scarce, soldiers patrol the streets, and Pei and her family have to practice their Catholic Faith in secret. When soldiers desecrate the church in her village, Pei makes a heroic decision out of love for the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Inspired by the true story of an anonymous martyr whom history remembers as "Little Li," 32 Days brings this remarkable tale of courage and faith to life for children ages 8-10. Winner of a 2017 Association of Catholic Publishers (ACP) Excellence in Publishing Award.
