These books are a great series to introduce your children to "heroes" of the Christian faith. The books have good pictures and come in a rhyming format. I have a 6, 4, and 2 year old who all enjoy these books (I have picked up a few in this series).

We have enjoyed a number of these Heroes for Young Readers books. My older son is 5, and he likes learning about the lives of these missionaries.The rhyming verses get on my nerves a little bit, and I wish they were written in prose instead. But if my son enjoys it and he is learning about these faithful servants of Christ, then I'm happy.

Great story for our kids on mission Sunday. Pictures are eye catching and keep kids attention. My kids hada great time drawing like pictures of what they saw in the book.

My grandson really enjoyed the book. The poetic form was well done.

Buy this book. It is a compelling story of a missionary.
