Ten Boys Who Didn’t Give in
Inspiring stories of martyrs
Irene Howat
By best–selling author Irene Howat
Historical stories about men of faith
Part of the Lightkeepers Series, targeted to readers aged 7–12
These ten boys grew up in hard times throughout history to become men who didn’t give in to the pressure against their faith. Living as a Christian was difficult, but they chose to do the right thing instead of the easy thing. In a world where we give in too easily, be inspired by the true stories of those who didn’t! Includes the stories of Nate Saint, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Thomas Cranmer, Polycarp, with the biographies of other great heroes of the faith.
