<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>These young readers' editions of the popular history texts reveal how God was at work in America's history from the very beginning. For ages 9 to 12.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>From the very beginning it would seem that God had a plan for America. From its discovery by Europeans to its settlement, from the Revolution to Manifest Destiny, from the stirrings of civil unrest to civil war, America was on a path. In our pluralistic world, when textbooks are being rewritten in ways that obscure the Judeo-Christian beginnings of our country, the books in the Discovering God's Plan for America series help ground young readers in a distinctly evangelical way of understanding early American history.<br/><br/>As young readers look at their nation's development from God's point of view, they will begin to have a clearer idea of how much we owe to a very few--and how much is still at stake. These engaging books bring history alive in a way that will inspire young people to do their important part in shaping this nation into the future.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><i>The Light and the Glory for Young Readers</i> leads children ages 9 to 12 on a journey of surprising discoveries about how God worked through the founders of America to establish this nation. From the first sighting of land to the devout Pilgrims and Puritans to the Revolutionary War, it would seem God had a plan. Young readers will love learning about the history of this great nation.
