About this book

Share the joy of spreading Christ's love with courage and humility. Kids will be inspired as they read the true story of Amy Carmichael.

At a time when being a single female missionary was extremely costly, she spent her life sharing Christ’s love with hundreds of women and children in Asia. Along the way, she adapted to fit into cultures very different from her own, learned to depend on God in prayer, and became a mother to many children who had been sold, kidnapped, outcast or abandoned.

This beautifully illustrated children's biography of Amy Carmichael (1867-1951) features stylish illustrations and extra facts in the back. It is part of the ...

Amy Carmichael: Illustrated biography
Further notes about Amy for adults and older children

Endorsements

Throughout my childhood, God used biographies to instill in me a desire to love and serve Christ with all my heart. Among those was the life of Amy Carmichael. I’m so grateful Hunter is sharing Amy’s story to inspire a new generation of children with this moving example of radical faith and sacrificial love.

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth Author, host/teacher of Revive Our Hearts

A small book about a big heart. Amy Carmichael’s self-giving love shines in striking contrast to our era of self-love. She served people so well because she didn’t finally live for them—she lived for God. Turn these pages with your kids and watch them glimpse what life is all about.

Matt Smethurst Gospel Coalition reviewer and Master of Divinity student at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Amy Carmichael has been one of my heroes of the faith since I first read her biography in college. I’m thrilled to see this excellent new children’s book, “Amy Carmichael: The Brown-Eyed Girl Who Learned to Pray” by Hunter Beless. I hope her story will inspire and encourage a new generation of children who prayerfully ask God to do great things!

Melissa B. Kruger Vice President of Discipleship Programming, The Gospel Coalition; Author, Wherever You Go, I Want You to Know and Growing Together

Through Hunter's retelling of Amy Carmichael's story, which includes a popular children's song and Amy's childlike prayers, we learn that God speaks to us and that He hears and answers our prayers in his way and in his timing.

This is a small book that offer kids big-Gospel vision for what God is doing around the world! In its pages, your child will learn about the humble life and service of the historic missionary, Amy Carmichael, and will learn that God gives each us everything we need in order to follow his call on our lives. This book will capture their hearts and minds with the mission of God in the world!

Amy Gannett Founder, Tiny Theologians; Author, Fix Your Eyes

This is such an inspiring and engaging book! As kids learn about Amy Carmichael's life, they will see the amazing things God can do when we are faithful to follow him.

Elizabeth Woodson Bible teacher; Author

Now more than ever, this generation needs countercultural stories about the strength that is found in dependance of God through prayer, the privilege of self-denial in serving others and the assurance in knowing that trusting God's will is always better than anything we could ever dreamt of! That is what this story is about!

5.00 stars Delighted with these books

 

I purchased a set for my granddaughter and could not be more thrilled with how they look but more importantly their content. Every little girl needs heroes to follow. Those who followed Christ are the ones that can inspire exactly who I pray she will one day be. Thank you for providing this resource.

"Amy promised to spend her life going and telling people about Jesus. She decided to become a missionary."

I was so excited to see this volume added to the Do Great Things for God series. Amy Carmichael is one of my favorite Christians to read about. As a little girl, Amy begged God to change her eyes to blue. She learned that God doesn't always answer prayers the way she expected. One day, Amy helped a poor woman carry a ...

These little books are simple yet well written and beautifully illustrated. It is absolutely wonderful to see how God used these godly women to reach the world with the gospel and to encourage young people to follow God today! Thank you for this series of books that encourage the next generation and each of us who read them to seek to follow God as well.
