Reader Reviews
 Another FavoriteFrom Jack Snavely of Castle Rock, Colorado on 12/30/2019 This was another of Amy Le Feuvre books that I really liked. The book could also have been titled, “The ‘Andyman”. Very touching. Have you ever seen a little boy and thought this boy is going to do something great. This is Andy. A born leader and a devoted servant. Since he is a very “saucy” city boy in the country, he is often misjudged by the country folk where he lives. However, he backs up his talk with action. We could all learn a lesson from Andy about having a positive attitude and a servant’s heart.
Well written, keeps your interest, moves along quickly, entertaining, and illustrates a good moral code while being real about the struggles of a young boy as he is growing and learning. |

The Silver Cup and other stories for the young (Emma Marshall)
$15.00In the New Testament, our Savior reveals that the second greatest commandment is to love our neighbor, in the same way that we already love ourselves. The short stories of this volume illustrate that the failure to love, evidenced by dishonesty and careless self-absorption, carries forth its effects from the individual to the family and society as a whole.
In contrast, you will see the fruit of repentance and the blessings that follow when we model the mercy and forgiveness of Christ and humbly consider others before ourselves.
Originally written in 1849.
