Story of how Gladys Aylward was called by God to go to China as a missionary. As a girl she had always wanted to be taller and to have blonde hair. On arriving in China she realises that the people there all have dark hair and are generally not so tall. Her missionary work is simply described and her escape from the Japanese army, leading many orphan children over the mountains to safety. Told simply for younger children.

... I would love to have owned this as a child! Very clear, readable and inspiring. This book gives children an idea of what missionary work is like, and how God called and used Gladys in his service.
