4-0 out of 5 stars Good historical fiction about a slave girl.
Twelve-year-old Rosebud Jackson has lived her whole life as a slave on a Maryland plantation. But with her family beside her, it hasn't been so bad. That all changes in the spring of 1853. Her older brother, Isaac, tries to run away, but is caught and sold away to the deep south. Her mother gives birth to a stillborn baby and dies soon after. Then Rosebud's father decides to escape to freedom, but Rosebud must stay behind to give him more time to get away. He promises to return for her that fall, but instead, Harriet Tubman comes, saying she will lead Rosebud to freedom, where she can be reunited with her father. But the escape north is long and dangerous, and Rosebud begins to wonder if she will ever be free, and ever see what is left of her family again.

I am reviewing this as a high school world history teacher who is looking for high-quality historical fiction of all skill levels that I can add to my classroom library.
4-0 out of 5 stars Martin Luther
This was a very good book for younger readers. It was full of action and adventure. Karl Schumacher was a student of Martin Luther who chose to risk his life just being accosiated with him. He makes a trip with Martin Luther in spite of the possible danger. Read and find out what will happen to young Karl Schumacher.5-0 out of 5 stars Inspiring for the whole family
My children, and I are using these books for a time of literature, history, geography, and Devotion. I got into this story just as much as mychildren. Iused a curriculum guide with the book, and we are able to havemore of an understanding of our character. Our character was Doctor MartinLuther, and having Karl as his companion was very neat for the children tofollow him through the story. We just finished the story, and we plan onreading another Trailblazer Book. I hope your child/ family will get asmuch out of the story as ours did. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Good historical fiction for young readers.
When thirteen-year-old Elizabeth Tilley and her parents board the Mayflower in 1620, they have high hopes for a better life in the New World. Although they are not Puritan Separatists like many of the passengers, the Tilleys have few economic opportunities in England. But after a long and difficult sea voyage, the Mayflower arrives in Cape Cod in the dead of winter. On deck one night, Elizabeth sees Dorothy Bradford, one of the other passengers, standing by the railing, but tells no one. The next morning, Dorothy has disappeared, presumed drowned. Elizabeth feels terrible guilt and is determined to hide her secret, fearing blame. Soon after, both of Elizabeth's parents die from disease. Elizabeth feels all alone, without family and with few friends, and burdened by the terrible secret she hides.

5-0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended!
This book is part of the Trailblazer Series, in which young people of the period (and as such your young reader) meet Christian heroes of the past. In this book, fourteen-year-old Casey Watkins grows tired of living under the thumb of his self-righteous uncle, and finds jobs for himself and his widowed mother with Forepaugh's Circus. While the circus tours the country, headed for Chicago and the Columbia Exposition of 1893, Casey is able to join the trapeze act. Arriving in Chicago, Casey meets that dynamic evangelist, Dwight Lyman Moody. Casey is fascinated by Moody, and when he panics during a trapeze act, and loses his confidence, he finds himself turning to Moody, and God.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Not just for children!
I finished this book in less than 6 hrs.It was such a page-turner!I really liked that it appealed to both adults and children alike!Hey, there was a little romance in there too! Very clean, mind you, this is a Christian juvenile book.I didn't read it aloud to my kids, but I will because it was such a page-turner for me!
5-0 out of 5 stars I LOVE the Trailblazer books!
This is on of my favorite Trailblazer books. It is about Gladys Aylward, a missionary in China, who takes in a lot of orphans and adopts three of her own children, Ninepence, Less, and Bao-Bao. One day the children see silver "birds" that drop bombs. Now, Gladys has to lead her nearly hundred orphans to safety from the Japanese, proving that God protects and listens to the prayers of His children. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The first modern nurse--Florence Nightingale
I strongly recommend this book. This is a great book about a boy in the Crimean War who helped Florence Nightingale.This book makes you want to read more and more!It is one of the best books I have ever read--I was really inspired by the love and care that Florence Nightingale gave to the wounded and sick soldiers. It was kind of bloody in places, but it makes you pray and feel sorry for the bad conditions they were in. I have read most of the Trailblazer books, and this one is my favorite! ... Read more

Nobody in my classroom wanted to read this book because it's a learning book. But when I saw it and picked it up, I knew it was my soulmate. This book has taught me a lot about loving God, being kind to others, and especially loving and respecting your family. And that's why I think other children should read this book. And I hope that they'll enjoy it as much as I did. Thank you. ... Read more
