This children s chapter book, specifically created for children ages 8 12 to be able to read on their own, is also a great story to read with them at bedtime or anytime! Meticulously researched for accuracy s sake, this book will help young people gain a testimony of the mission of Joseph Smith. Line drawings throughout help bring his story to life for them. Each chapter of the book presents one incident from Joseph Smith s life and can be read as an individual story. But the stories are arranged chronologically so that, as a whole, they present a full biography of Joseph Smith for the young reader. As one parent stated: I read this book aloud at bedtime to my four little boys, ten to three. I ll cherish the conversation we had after the last page was read where we all agreed that we knew Joseph s mission was God- led and that he was a prophet. Thank you for this book!

Although approximately half the people in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have been women, their lives of faith and dedication are just beginning to receive the attention they merit. The Women of Faith series recounts the stories of women in Church history, often in their own words, as they share their trials, triumphs, and testimonies. Volume 4 encompasses brave stories of valiant women from all over the world born between 1871 and 1895. They loved and lived their faith through war, famine, dictators, and personal loss. Each of these inspiring women shed light on the miracles of faith and the love the Lord has for His people.

On Christmas Day 1925, Elder Melvin J. Ballard dedicated South America for the restored gospel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Twenty-two years passed before another Apostle, Stephen L. Richards, and his wife, Irene, visited the continent where the Church now existed in three nations with scattered small branches. Today, millions of Latter-day Saints live in South America, but what was the Church like in its early days there? How did it grow as prophesied by Elder Ballard from a small acorn to the mighty tree of the restored gospel? Follow the Apostle s journey by train, boat, car, and airplane that marked a turning point for Latter-day Saints on that continent. Follow the experiences of Apostle Stephen L. Richards and his wife, Irene, in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay that changed the course of the Church in Latin America.
