In this lively and engaging chapter book, children aged 7 plus will discover a fantastically faithful and diverse group of people who all have one thing in common: they answered God's call to lead others.

Kids will meet:

Sojourner Truth: an escaped slave who helped others to escape on the underground railroad.

Lord Shaftesbury: a social reformer who campaigned for better working conditions and who saved young children from being sent out to work.

Evangeline Booth: the first female leader of the Salvation Army who received a medal for her work to help soldiers during the First World War.

Madam C. J. Walker: an African American businesswoman and philanthropist who was the first female self-made millionaire in the USA.

Billy Graham: an evangelist who preached the gospel all over the world and led millions to Jesus.

John Glenn Jr: the first astronaut to orbit Earth, who went on to become a US Senator.

Queen Elizabeth II: a queen who faithfully served God and her people.

Desmond Tutu: a Bishop who helped bring an end to apartheid in South Africa.

Each chapter ends with a Bible memory verse, questions for reflection and a short prayer.

With humorous black and white line drawings and text that bounces off the page, this biography series will inspire today's kids to put their faith in Jesus and to use their talents for the glory of God.
