Publisher Description: The midwife ushered Parisio into the bedchamber. Her tear-stained face told him that something was not right. When the midwife slowly pulled back the blanket, Parisio gasped. Little Margaret is the true story of Margaret's short life (1287-1320). She was born disfigured, blind, lame, and a dwarf. You will cheer for her as she first overcomes imprisonment and then abandonment by her family. She learned about God's love for her from the castle priest. God used a girl others labeled as "crippled" to become as an angel to the sick, imprisoned, and dying. It's no wonder Margaret was beatified by the Church |
