About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The King of the Golden City by Mother Mary Loyola. Read in English by Maria Therese This charming allegory will bring to the heart of the child a deep love for Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament and an understanding of the graces received in Holy Communion. We follow with delight the little Dilecta in her meetings with The King; her struggles against the evil influence of Malignus, in which she is so ably helped by the Prince Guardian; from the hut in which she lived and where The King so often and so graciously visited her -- right into His Golden City. (Summary from The Catholic World, Volume 114)
