NancyNellen Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I can only respond about Gladys Aylward: Adventure of a Lifetime. Just this week both my 13 year old son and my 12 year old daughter picked this book up and read it in one sitting. They both said it was one of the best books they've read (and they read voraciously!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyfaithe Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 This would be for younger teens to read alone or as a read-aloud for littles. TIA! Definitely The Little Woman! I loved this book and so did my girls. PLEASE watch the movie as well...Ingrid Bergman stars in it and it was done beautifully.

Brenda in FL Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I read the one by Sam Wellman (Heros of the Faith series). Really enjoyed it. The movie is great as well. But we had a pastor at our old church in Florida whose parents were missionaries in China, he was a boy at the time - he thought it was very comical that the cast Ingrid Bergman as the "little woman!" His parents might have been there at about the same time as he described a child's perspective (his!) of the train ride from England to China and the facade of the China Inland Mission building in one of his sermons. It's so interesting to talk to some of those "heroes" that are still in our congregations. This pastor also went to school with Jim Elliot and the other missionaries that were massacred. He had actually been asked to join them. He went to Japan instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
