Author’s Notes

This book is a fictionalized account of missionary kids’ stories from 6 different countries around the world. The stories are based, in part, on past or present missionary families. I wrote this book to educate and inspire children to dream about becoming missionaries. I want children to learn about all different kinds of missionaries and mission work. In this way, they will grow to understand that God can use all kinds of people and talents to tell others about Himself.

It is my hope that, in addition to children reading on their own, this book may be used to educate
