Amy Carmichael - Rescuing the Children (Heroes For Young Readers Series)

This poetic account of Amy Carmichaels life, starts right from the beginning, when as a child, she saw the destitute state of children around her and vowed that when she was old enough, she'd do something about it. She held true to that promise, and this book is a lovely testimony of what one person can do right where they are to bring about the KIngdom of God as it is in Heaven. The only thing I wasn't that fond of was the illustrations, but that's just a matter of preference. The book itself is great and my children love listening to it. They're in the 3-8year age bracket. Would be great for doing a character study with the children.
