The British Josiah: Edward VI (Heroes of the Faith Series)

It usually takes a lifetime to make an impact on history. But here is a story of what God can do through the life of a young person dedicated to Him! The son of Henry VIII, Edward became king of England at age 9 and reigned for only six years. Like the young King Josiah of Judah, he delighted in the Scriptures. Consequently, he used those brief years as king to set the roots of the Reformation deep into the heart of his country. The fragrance of his young life lingered long after his death. Your heart will be moved as you read not only about his life but actual prayers and other original works written by this boy king. Biography written by N. A. Woychuk. Includes bibliography, index, and Scripture index for quick reference. 208 pages. Gr. 7–12.
