Betsey Stockton: The Girl with a Missionary Dream (Do Great Things for God)

“As a parent, I want my children to be shaped and influenced by the steadfast lives of other Christians. The "Do Great Things for God" series by Laura Caputo-Wickham is a wonderful introduction to faithful women who courageously served the Lord in a variety of ways. These stories teach as they inspire, and your children will be blessed to learn about Betsey Stockton’s missionary dream and Corrie Ten Boom’s secret room. ”

“For every classic "faith hero" or "heroine" we know of, there are hundreds who endured on the margins of history whose stories are just waiting to be discovered. God remembers each name and each story, and it's time we do too. This series brings to life the forgotten, teaches us valuable lessons, and imprints on us early on that if God kept our spiritual ancestors, he will keep us too. ”

“A wonderful series, beautifully illustrated, introducing your children to godly women. ”

“Whether she’s retelling the extraordinary stories of Corrie ten Boom or Betsey Stockton, Laura Caputo-Wickham captures a big gospel for little hearts. The wonderful storytelling and charming illustrations make the mini-biographies in the "Do Great Things for God" series pitch-perfect for even the youngest readers. I hope your family enjoys them as much as mine did. ”

“My 6-year-old son and I both needed to hear about Betsey. These are the heroes we need: Brave and faithful in a broken world. ”

“An amazing life of faith and service brought to life by this lovely picture book. ”

“This extraordinary story of Betsey Stockton’s life will open your children's eyes to wonder what God might do in their lives. ”

“This heart-swelling account of an enslaved woman who gained her freedom and immediately surrendered it to become a missionary moved me to tears. A must-have for every child's bookshelf. ”
