Description

Students will be introduced to ten, God-fearing, justice seeking, mountain moving abolitionists. This is a gentle way to introduce the reading of biographies and get kids excited about digging deeper. Abolitionists are presented in chronological order, allowing students to see the intersecting of individuals lives in this great movement. There is an upfront statement throughout the book, ‘sin leads to more sin’ and this is demonstrated in each story told. There are vocabulary moments where unfamiliar words are presented and given explanation right in the text. Scripture abounds throughout this book to shed God’s goodness and plan over all creation. Simple black and white illustrations are presented throughout, maps, a timeline, and work cited in the back. 93 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca
