This set of 8 stories for boys, all reprints from the 19th century, are some of our richest, most challenging books for boys ages 8 to 14. Also very suitable to read aloud with younger children or for family reading.
Continuing in the tradition of the well-known Grace & Truth Books Children’s Character Building Collection, these volumes tell stories of young men facing challenging dilemmas in life through which they learn to grow in Christian character. They are also highly gospel-centered stories. This means, they don’t merely promote a life of good behavior or hopes of being saved by our good works. Rather, they encourage a boy to turn in faith and repentance to Jesus Christ early in life. Then, to live a life in pursuit of godliness while continually looking to God and His abundant grace for the forgiveness of sin.
They were originally published by the American Tract Society in the 1800s. From 1970 to the 1990s, the faithful ministry of Triangle Press in Montana kept them in print. But now, these stories have been republished in their highest-quality editions ever.
