MY THOUGHTS.....
She Believed is the perfect way to impress upon little girls their ability to change the world. This book offers the stories of twelve brave women who, through their courage and faith, helped make our world a better place. Two pages are devoted to each person and they include an one-page biography with an appropriate Bible verse and a fun, illustrated portrait. Many of the names are familiar, such as Harriet Tubman, Mother Teresa, and Florence Nightingale, but there are several that are not as well-known, but certainly just as important.
This is a beautiful hardcover book with easy-to-read text that targets young girls ages 5-8 and colorful illustrations that they will love.She Believed is the perfect way to share God's Word with these girls and to also encourage them to be brave and faithful!
