Publisher's Synopsis
Amy Carmichael was still a child when an encounter with a poor girl her age changed the course of her life and in turn the lives of countless others. As she grew up, Amy kept her promise to help others, ultimately rescuing hundreds of women and children from the hopelessness of poverty, oppression, and life without Christ. First in the slums of Northern Ireland and later in far-away India, Amy reached out to others in love, faith and compassion. Now Heroes for Young Readers makes Amy Carmichael's remarkable story available in this picture book all ages will treasure. (1867-1951)
