In this lively and engaging chapter book, children aged 7 plus will discover a fantastically faithful and diverse group of people who all have one thing in common: they answered God's call to be a hero.

Kids will meet:

* Edward Jenner: a doctor who invented the smallpox vaccine, saving millions of lives

* Harriet Tubmann: an escaped slave who rescued other enslaved people and worked as a spy for the Union Army

* Pandita Ramabai: a Hindu convert to Christianity who rescued thousands of abandoned children and child widows

* Edith Cavell: a nurse who risked her life to help both Allied and German soldiers in World War 1 and paid the ultimate price

* John Harper: a pastor who saved others on the Titanic and continued to minister to others even as he and they were dying in the water

* Corrie Ten Boom: a watchmaker who helped hide Jewish people escaping the Nazis

* Martin Luther King Jr: a civil rights activist who led a non-violent campaign to end segregation

* Jesse Owens: an African American athlete who beat all the odds to win four gold medals at the 1936 Olympics

With humorous black and white line drawings and text that bounces of the page, this biography series for the twenty-first century will inspire kids to put their faith in Jesus and to use their talents for the glory of God.
