Book Overview

George Muller was a thief when he was younger and spent time in jail for his crimes. Brother Andrew grew up in Holland during the second World War and played tricks on German soldiers.

What happened to these young boys and how did God make them into men who changed their world? Read how George Muller was finally trusted with millions of pounds. Discover how Brother Andrew grew up to be a smuggler of Bibles.

Ten Boys Who Changed The World (Lightkeepers)

I bought for my teen boy, he said this is a good book to know peoples' life briefly.

Great for Adults as Well as Kids

I bought these for my two sons ages 8 and 11. Little did I know that these simply written stories would be just as interesting for me! I heartily recommend these stories for the whole family -- the format lends itself easily to family study.
