ourjourneys Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Is anyone familiar with this author? I have some old books of The Little Colonel adventures. I can not find much about them online and I thought of using them as read alouds, but I want to know a little more from someone else before spending the time to read them.

Rebecca VA Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 She wrote "Joel, a Boy of Galilee," which is a wonderful book about a crippled boy who meets and is healed by Jesus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ourjourneys Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Thanks, So, is she known as Christian author? Or just wrote the one book about the Bible story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saw Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I liked the Little Colonel books I read, but I would be careful letting a child read them because of the way race is handled. The books are clearly from another era. I think there may be some that have been "cleaned up", but you could check that on Amazon. I do like the books, but I have to keep reminding myself of the context. I found a link to a site about her: http://www.littlecolonel.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
