King of the Shattered Glass

This beautifully illustrated story tells a tale of an orphan, Marguerite, who works in the King’s kitchen. When Marguerite breaks the King’s precious glass, those around her tell her to bury the glass and hide the evidence, but her conscience tells her otherwise. What is she to do?

Susan Joy Bellavance’s tale of courage, honesty, and bravery through the character of Marguerite gives readers deep insight into mercy and how God shows us his love through the Sacrament of Confession.
