Description

The young daughter of a local saint maker, a Santero, takes it upon herself to finish the carvings which her father is unable to complete for the new church because of illness. She discovers the task is not as easy as she hoped. But a stranger knocks at the workshop door and kindly volunteers to help her. Later she is surprised to find out who the stranger was. Marie Romero Cash's story of love and determination along with her beautiful illustrations will delight readers of all ages. An award winning Santera herself, she has inside knowledge on the subject of saints which is dear to her heart.
