Nuns are well known for teaching valuable lessons. This is a story patterned after the experience of one of the authors with her own Sister Mary Carlice. The wisdom of those lessons have reverberated through decades and guided those who were privileged to receive it. The story of the rich man and the beggar is timeless. It comes alive in a surprising way in this book.

Sister Mary Carlice is the best teacher at Our Lady Queen of Peace. When she teaches her students a Bible story, someone always learns a lesson. As she teaches her students about the Prodigal Son, the Duncan twins see the relationship of the parable to their own lives.
