Lessons for the Young

Children's Heritage Series

by Rufus Babcock

The books in this series are copies of 18th and 19th century books. The stories have the original language, sentence structure, and art. The stories present problems people faced, and the principles they preached are as relevant today as they were then. May God be pleased to bless the contents of our "Children's Heritage Series" to the lives of each reader. Webster's warning was given many years ago; times have changed, but not in a Godly manner.The mission of Triangle Press is to furnish concerned parents tools to help teach children the truth. This "Children's Heritage Series" has not been rewritten as the Character Building Series was, but the books are reproduced in their original form; a form which some feel is antiquated. True. However, they represent not only the teachings of Godly principals, but they also represent a piece of our history and heritage. The vocabulary contained in these books is rich and varied; it is a far cry from the usual limited and bland use of words found in much of today's children's literature. Some children may even be challenged to rewrite a story in modern grammar; the stories may also be used as a springboard for family study and discussion. There are many aspects of this "Children's Heritage Series" to be cherished.

We hope that young people of all ages will find this book to be a blessing and a practical guide for their daily lives. The book dwells on four Bible Achen, Ruth, Daniel, and Jesus in the particular instance when He raised the widow's son from the dead during His visit to the city of Nain. Specific instances in the character's situation are applied to a Christian walk today. It is written in a manner which young peoplewill find understandable, interesting, and informative.
