"The Blessed Virgin Maryās appearance to Sr. Adele Brice is becoming an increasingly well-known and loved story here in the United States. Theoni Bell's new book adds exciting insights to the life of Sr. Adele. It is also the first time a book has explained the long apparition approval process that was undertaken here in Champion. After years of research, Theoni now tells a much fuller story of Sr. Adeleās faith and perseverance to carry out the mission given to her by the Queen of Heaven. This book is sure to inspire readers to go deeper in their faith and follow Our Lady's call."

"Our Lady always leads us to her Son, Jesus. This is true in the stories of Scripture from the past, and it is also true in Marian Apparitions from around the world. We are familiar with Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of Fatima, and Our Lady of Lourdes-- but what about the only approved Marian Apparition in the United States? In this detailed new book, readers can learn about the amazing story of Our Lady of Champion, visionary Adele Brice, and the recent apparition investigation. Through the detailed text, numerous photographs, and primary sources, children and families will discover a message from Mary that is interesting, trustworthy, and inspiring!"
