This fascinating addition to our best-selling Who Was...? Series
presents young readers with a biography that covers what is known
historically about Jesus and places his life in the context of his
world when Jerusalem was part of the Roman Empire. In an even
handed and easy to read narrative, this title, which is illustrated
with eighty black and white drawings, also explains the early
origins of Christianity and how it became a major religion.
This beautifully illustrated book introduces readers to Prophet
Muhammad's (pbuh) childhood and to those who helped raise the man
that would, by the will of Allah, lead an entire ummah and be an
example for all time. This book introduces readers to Prophet
Muhammad's (pbuh) very early life, his childhood and to those who
helped raise and shape the man that would lead an entire nation and
be an example for all time. The Beginnings of Prophet Muhammed
(pbuh) is a meaningful story written in a child's voice with a
young reader in mind. What differentiates this book from others are
the personalities it focuses on. In alternate books about the
Prophet, much isn't written about his mother who passed soon after
his birth nor about the women who raised him. Meet a handful of the
men and women that helped shape the early life of Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh). In these pages, you will find his mother, Amina bint Wahb;
the women that loved and protected him like their very own, Halimah
Sa'diyyah and Barakah (Umm Ayman); and his beloved grandfather Abd
al-Muttalib, alongside his uncle Abu Talib.

Against the fascinating tapestry of Frances history during the Hundred Years' War, Diane Stanley unfolds the story of the simple thirteen-year-old village girl who in Just a few years would lead France to independence from English rule, and thus become a symbol of France's national pride. It is a story of vision and bravery, fierce determination, and tragic martyrdom. Diane Stanley's extraordinary gift to present historical information in an accessible and child-friendly format has never been more impressive, nor her skillful, beautifully realized illustrations (here imitating medieval illuminated manuscripts) more exquisite.

there? What if instead, you'd like to have adventures closer to
home? Well this book is for you! Meet some very adventurous
missionaries and learn about the countries they worked in. Find out
what it's like to be in the middle of the Mau Mau rebellion in

what it was like to work in a foreign country. Charles Spurgeon and

part of being in the Christian family - a family that is spreading
round the whole world at an amazing rate. At the end of the book
are some check-up questions to help you remember the stories.
