Mariah Fearing

Once freed from slavery on an Alabama plantation, Mariah Fearing chose to go back to Africa to show children Jesus' compassion and protect them from being sold into slavery like she was. She even helped translate the Bible so that the children could read it in their own language.

Her patience and grit in overcoming incredible obstacles to heed God's call make her a great role model for young children. They will be encouraged by her faith and God's faithfulness, and inspired to do great things for God too.

This beautiful hardback book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos. It makes a beautiful gift for children aged 4-7.
