  At the end of each "school year", we give the boys a book. Sometimes, they ask for a particular book or we buy one that's part of a series they already have. This year, I decided to buy some Lamplighter books. Why? Lamplighter publishing finds old stories, often with a Christian message, and reprints them in a beautifully bound hardback. Their "Rare Collector's Books" are perfect for a gist or to mark a special occasion. This year, I gave Zac "Titus: A Comrade of the Cross" and Stephen got the sequel, "Stephen: A Soldier of the Cross". There's one more in the series, "The Cross Triumphant" and we will get that soon. Zac told me after he finished his book the other day that he wants to buy another Lamplighter book with his own money. I mentioned to him that I would buy a few in one go and he said that he wanted to buy all of them himself, even if it took a while! I was thrilled to hear him say this. The language is harder for a 9 year old than a lot of the other books he's reading but he enjoyed the story and now wants more. Why not go to the Lamplighter site and have a look around? Some old classics may be known to you already. www.lamplighterpublishing.com |
