Reader Reviews
“I enjoy reading these aloud to my children (10,7,5) and they love to listen. They ask questions about vocabulary they do not understand and follow the engaging stories. One challenge for me reading aloud is voicing some of the slang/broken English used by some characters. It takes a moment to discern what the character is communicating. This issue is also challenging for children reading independently. However, it should NOT deter you from these high quality books.” — Michael Warren, Crystal Lake, Illinois
“I purchased this as a Sunday School gift to a 10 year old boy who has borrowed a couple of my Lamplighter books and loved them. However I went ahead and read the book myself and I loved it! I think it was a great purchase and hope he enjoys it as much as I did.” — Christian Forsyth, Ashland, Alabama
“Lovely stories that will be read over and over again. They remind me of the stories my Granny told me as a child. A wonderful addition to our library.” — Mary, Atlanta, Georgia
About the Lamplighter Rare Collector’s SeriesÂ
Lamplighter stories are much more than good and wholesome reading for the family. Â The inspiring role models found in Lamplighter books show a child that outward compliance alone will not carry a child through the stresses and disappointments soon to be faced in adolescence and adulthood, nor are they a substitute for faith in Christ. Â As we learn of perseverance, courage, loyalty, humility, these are qualities to emulate and pursue, but as children read in stories of others like them trying their best and falling short, they will powerfully learn their need for the gospel. Â Though life is often not easy, we can be confident that each disappointment and trial is designed by a loving God for our good.
