Well written biography that tells the story of John Newton's life in a style that is friendly to young readers, with larger font and lovely illustrations.
The biography follows John Newton from his young years to his later life, showing the years when he was running from God, yet God kept calling him back. It was so cool to see the hand of God through John's life, and how he became a man of deep faith after his years of irresponsible actions as a young man. The book includes a timeline of his life, some fun snippets of information and 2 letters from him to his niece Betsy.
A wonderful addition to your library, hardcover bound with durable glossy full color pages, lovely illustrations and a message of faith and God's amazing grace. Great for all ages, especially older elementary 7-12, but fantastic to read even as an adult.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
