This collection, Lightkeepers Girls Box Set, features inspiring stories of fifty girls whose lives exemplify faith and courage, encouraging young readers to follow their example.
The Lightkeepers Girls Box Set offers a collection of inspiring stories about fifty remarkable girls who were used by God in extraordinary ways. Authored by the award-winning Irene Howat, this set brings to life the experiences of notable figures like Helen Roseveare, Corrie Ten Boom, and Joni Eareckson, showcasing their bravery, cleverness, and unwavering faith. Each of the five books in this set features ten captivating stories, encouraging young readers to look to the God who worked through these influential women.
Each story begins with an incident or memory from the girl’s childhood, illustrating that even those who achieve greatness start as ordinary children. The chapters are designed to be easy to read and are complemented by a fact file, a keynote, a think spot, and a prayer, allowing readers to reflect on the lessons learned. At the end of each book, a quiz is included to test the reader’s retention of the material, making it both educational and engaging.
The Lightkeepers Girls Box Set contains five titles, each focusing on different aspects of these girls' lives: their impact on the world, their use of talents, their historical significance, their resilience in adversity, and their contributions to society. This collection not only aims to inspire young readers aged 8-12 but also fosters an appreciation for Christian biographies, making it a valuable addition to any young person's library.
The real strength of the series the quality of the writing -it is so engaging. Browsing through the chapters I had to tear myself away from each paragraph I set my eyes on.
For too long our children have often had to put up with second best in their reading of Christian literature. Good intentions are not enough, but here we have books that conform to the best standards of secular reading and are excellent exemplars of Christian living and challenge.
If you buy one of these as a present for somebody be careful not to get it dog-eared, or better still buy two! Teachers please note that these would serve as a good basis for Christian oriented assemblies.
It's a wonderful series. Irene Howat writes with a real warmth and insight. People that you have never met come alive on the page. Christian legends and unsung heroes all become friends you can understand and look up to. In a world where role models of real integrity are few and far between the Lightkeeper's series fills the gap!
