The story of "Teresita" Quevedo (1930-50), the Catholic beauty who wanted to become a saint
The life of the party, a dancer, an expert tennis and basketball player, popular, Maria Theresa Quevedo wanted more - eternal glory. She entered Carmel before finishing high school and her cause for canonization is under examination. "For him alone I lived," she said, and Mary was her secret.
A female St. Dominic Savio. A Spanish bishop is quoted in the book:
"The book which you have in your hands is not one to leaf through and set aside for someone else to read. That God has placed it in your hands should be sufficient to assure you that there is something in it written for you. If you are a man, prepare to enter into a beautiful and chaste feminine world. If you are a father, the intimacy of the authentic Catholic family sketched on these pages will delight you. If you are a woman, there are a million things in this book for you. If you are a young girl, walking the same path as that of Teresita, it will fascinate you! Whoever you are, read to the end and you will learn how a holy and happy young girl finds God."

Very good book. We are giving them as gifts.
I read this book when I was younger and unmarried. I was very much into sports and a normal young adult life. Her story showed me how someone in our age could live a normal, joyful life full of friendships, activities, etc and still be totally dedicated to God. Her devotion to Mary is beautiful and attainable. Definitely having my children read in a couple years!
