Isobel Kuhn questioned whether God even existed. Mary Slessor grew up in a slum with an alcoholic father. Joni Eareckson broke her neck during a diving accident and Corrie Ten Boom just lived with her family in a little watch shop in Harlaam, Holland.
What is so special about these girls and how did they change their world?
Isobel Kuhn believed in God and then obeyed his call to travel to Asia to tell the Lisu people about God. Mary Slessor, put herself through evening classes and eventually became one of the first white women to venture into the interior of Africa. Joni Eareckson struggled through her treatment and endless hospital visits to become the inspiration to many Christians. Corrie Ten Boom spent most of her life just living in Holland until the Nazis started killing the Jews. Corrie Ten Boom put her life on the line to save the lives of many Jews in the hiding place, a hidden room behind her wardrobe in a little watch shop in Haarlem, Holland. Mary Slessor (Missionary in Africa), Corrie Ten Boom (hid Jews in Nazi Germany), Granny Brand (Missionary in India), Joni Eareckson , Gladys Aylward (Missionary in China), Jackie Pullinger (Missionary in Hong Kong), Amy Carmichael (Missionary in India), Elisabeth Fry (Worked among the sick, prisoners and homeless), Catherine Booth (Co-Founder of The Salvation Army) and Isobel Kuhn (Missionary in Asia)This is a wonderful book - in fact it's a wonderful series. Irene Howat writes with a real warmth and insight. People that you have never met come alive on the page. Christian legends and unsung heroes all become friends you can understand and look up to. In a world where role models of real integrity are few and far between the Lightkeeper's series fills the gap!

I loved the concept of these for my daughter, and she was so excited about learning about these women. However, the stories are not engaging at all, and there is barely anything about any of the women. She is in 3rd grade, and I thought these would be a fun, easy, educational read for her. So, if you just want something brief to introduce the name of the person and the main thing they accomplished in their life, then this is ok. Otherwise, don't spend the money.Product details

Ten Girls Who Changed The World Lightkeepers edition by Irene Howat Children eBooks Reviews
Bought as gift for pre=teen granddaughter! She loves it!
Good book!
When I read this to the kids we are all captivated by it! The stories are well written and very interesting.
I love this book 😍
these were short bios about girls whose lives were significant in the process of world events. Easy for a reluctant girl to read and have a completion without having to read the book at 1 sitting.
not very well written or captivating.
It is just okay. My daughter likes more detail.
My 9 year old daughter loves to read, and she's a good reader. I wanted her to start reading books with substance, so I bought her this one. She read the first missionary story but couldn't see what was so world changing about it. So I said I would read them first and underline important parts for her. It was still hard for her to understand.
The idea of the book is great. Young or middle age women who have acted in a way that changed the way we see or do things, in a positive way. The vocabulary is easy enough. The reading is clumsy,though. I'm not sure how to explain it better than that.
Another problem is that you need to know some general history for the heroines actions to be seen in their proper light. For instance, a woman going off by herself to a foreign country, with no money or mission support, not speaking the native language, knowing no one, and most of all, being a WOMAN in a country like China where females were not respected at that time (1800s)... If you don't understand these kind of things, you can't really understand the story or appreciate what the missionary or heroine did that was so world changing.
So I have to say, the reading is good for 9 year olds, but they will definitely need some help understanding background information. It wasn't quite what I thought it would be.
