of Udell’s
Pages: 224
Every day, in all the little common things
as well as the great ones, we are to do the will
of God. But when we love the level of comfort
we have attained and the plans we have for the future, it is hard
to say, “Thy will be done.” The children of Cloverley not only say
it—they do it. This dramatic adventure gives hope and courage,
and will touch the heart of each family member.

This book is a winner among our unique
collection of Lamplighter classics! President
Ronald Reagan wrote: “That book, That Printer of Udell’s, had an
impact I shall always remember… The term “role model” was
not a familiar term in that time and place. But I realize I found
a role model in that traveling printer whom Harold Bell Wright
had brought to life. He set me on a course I’ve tried to follow even
unto this day. I shall always be grateful.”

Enoch Roden’s
Training
Hesba Stretton - 1865
This book is bursting with life’s lessons!
As Enoch’s faith is tested, will he prove that
his is no mere profession, but a real, living
confidence in God’s love and wisdom?
Through severe trials, Enoch learns much
about sound business principles, sacrifice, and trusting God. If he
had only said, “I am working with God…” he would never have
found the work wearisome, for of all grand, and comforting, and
heart-refreshing thoughts in this world, to a Christian, the greatest
is the thought that we are co-workers with God. Without a doubt,
after reading this book, you’ll walk away a better person than
when you began.

Cloverley, Jessica’s First Prayer, Jessica’s Mother Comes Home, Me and Nobbles,

Helen’s
Temper
The Mansion
Henry van Dyke - 1887
Pages: 80
Mrs. George Gladstone - 1872
This little book is a powerhouse, sending
a quickening jolt to the very depths of our
respectable-looking facade. The Mansion
takes a piercing look at John Weightman,
one of the most “successful” men in New
York, and his son, who desperately wants
to find his way and be free to make his own mistakes rather than
being played like pieces in a game of chess. The Mansion… it will
make you think.
Pages: 168
Unlike her tender-hearted sister, Helen’s
choices are dictated by fear of what her
friends might think if she associates with
a girl who is so shabby… so different! Her
unchecked temper causes great harm, but God’s love proves to
be greater than she ever imagined.

Galahad, Tom Gillies, Me and Nobbles, and Jessica’s First Prayer.

were locked in chains, preventing him from
rescuing his terrified mother as she was dragged away by their
captors. She had only seven days to return with the answer that
could save her son! The days that followed showed Horace how
God’s light can penetrate the darkest evil. The Robbers’ Cave is a
breathtaking family experience!

follow the valiant perseverance of our hero,
Ishmael. As his uncompromising propensity
to do well was clearly seen in Ishmael, you
will now be introduced to his secret struggle. Though conceived
in secrecy, born in adversity, lived in poverty, and redeemed

E.D.E.N Southworth considered Ishmael
to be her very best work, being founded
on the life of one of the noblest of our

and triumphed in this land. Its inspirations
of wisdom and goodness were drawn from
the examples of heroic warriors and statesmen of the Revolution.
Ishmael - born in the depths of poverty, misery, and humiliation
and raised to the summit of fame - was good as well as great. His
life is proof that there is no depth of human misery from which
we may not, by virtue, energy, and perseverance, rise to earthly
honors, and by God’s grace, attain eternal glory.

Probable Sons etches into our hearts the
importance of forgiveness and reconciliation.
This delightful story will keep you smiling
as our little heroine, Milly, boldly and
innocently exhorts “probable sons” to
return home. (She can’t pronounce “prodigal.”) May the truths
found in this little story find a resting place in the many hearts
that have strayed far from home.
The Highland Chairman is a provocative story
relative to today’s busy culture, where values
are turned upside-down and priorities
are misaligned. It is a gripping account of
how a father’s poor choices and negative influence led to tragic
consequences for his son. This story brought me to my knees!

As a young woman falls from her father’s grace, she has nowhere
to turn on a most dreadful and cold winter night, and she must
find refuge for her little girl. If she returns home, is there any hope
that she might find her father waiting with open arms? Otherwise
she has one last resort—to sell her only treasure to greedy Mr.
Griffin. The drama deepens as John Griffin does the unthinkable!
The stronghold of pride and the vice of greed take center stage as
the tension rises and the mystery unfolds.

John
Ploughman’s
Talk
Author: Charles Spurgeon
Charles Spurgeon cuts to the chase with his
witty yet straightforward discourse on several important issues
that were relevant back then and continue to demand attention
today. It appears that, where formal sermons may have fallen
on deaf ears, John Ploughman takes to the strets in the common
language of the people and lays bare the issues of man in his nononsense stule.

On the lonely island the lighthouse stands,

From the depths of injustice and tyranny rises
a heroine, Zuma, whose dauntless courage
knows no bounds. Loyalty and self-sacrifi ce
are no strangers to those who are held by vow
never to betray the secret. Zuma’s choice is made; her willingness
to risk her own life is inspired by the One who demonstrated that
“greater love hath no man than this...”
Three additional short stories complete this volume. In Gratitude
and Probity a place of honor is reserved for the poor and needy,
and in Michal and Jacqueline generosity is shown toward the simpleminded. Finally, we are reminded of the consequences of sin and
the hope of forgiveness in The Young Fisherman of Heligoland.

My Mates
and I
Author: Mrs. O.F. Walton
Pages: 192
This penetrating story covers
a lot of territory that teenage
guys are too often familiar with:
the power of peer influence, the
consequence of ignoring our conscience, the deception
of self-reform, and the danger of a backslidden
condition. Charlie Wescott is a wayside hearer,
allowing the seed of truth to be snatched up by idle
thoughts, idle talk, and idle companions. He lives for
the moment, giving no thought to the pain he may be
inflicting on himself and others. But it is also a story
of redemption-giving us a glimpse of God’s loving
hand that is stretched out still.

Here is a book that you just can’t put
down! It is a story of man’s decision to
get caught up in sin out of desperation
to serve the one he loves. But it soon
becomes clear that one lie from a “truthful” man is
more hurtful than all the lies of a liar. Those who yield
to its power engage in an intricate path of falsehood-an
entangling maze-that ever deepens as one lie builds
upon another. As you wrestle with the characters in this
engaging drama, rest assured that your confidence will
grow, not in man, but in our loving, forgiving God.
This wonderful devotional will bless
you with simple reminders of God’s
grand eternal truths, His gentle counsel will help you
to face the stresses of the day with a sense of joy and
purpose. A simple reminder to “be content to lead a
simple life where God has placed you” may be just what
you need to rise above the challenges that God has for
you today.

Faithful, but
not Famous
Author: Emma Leslie
Pages: 224
Once again, a writer of old has
portrayed a vivid account of a godly
father who imparts the gospel to his
son. This marvelous work reflects the
era of the Reformation and those who gave their lives,
suffering for the gospel that only Christ could forgive
sins... a message contrary to the “church” at this time.
Beyond this, another message is woven into this storythat of the Savior’s call on a life, even that of a child.
You will not put this book down!

The Shepherd

Rising to
the Top
Author: A.L.O.E.

Author: Mary E. Ropes
Pages: 96
“There’s two things as always
come to the top; one’s meritt’other’s scum. Which of them
is to rise first, I can’t tell, but
neither will lie at the bottom long.” You’ll want
to stand up for the honor of poor victimized
Bob, but in the end you’ll see that in the midst
of darkness the light shines brightest!
This is a story that has the definite
seal of approval for Lamplighter
Publishing. This charming tale
includes cottage lectures on the history
of David, which the incidents in the story illustrate. This
book is unique in that it weaves lengthy passages of
scripture throughout the entire book. The passages are
paralleled to the characters in the story, and they, in turn,
respond to their life challenges according to God’s Word.
Isn’t that what His Word is supposed to do for us? This
was a story that I just couldn’t put down.
