Excellent transaction A+++

This a wonderful book, full of well written episodes in the village life of a missionary family in Bakwé country, Cote Di Voire. Most enjoyable!

My kids howled...then they prayed

Lisa Leidenfrost brought the joys and trials of missionary life into my living room as I read this book aloud to my wife and children. It's got all the great stories told without a hint of self-pity...no matter how many ants are present...that endeared the Leidenfrosts to my family such that my children are motivated to pray for them all the time. These people are first rate!
