Middle-Grade Biography Illuminates Eric Liddell's Life of Faith and Fame
Eric Liddell was an Olympic sprinter, gold medalist, and world record-holder. But despite his rising fame on the track, he was determined to dedicate his life and legacy to God alone. After his Olympic triumph in 1924, Liddell returned to China as a missionary, embodying self-sacrifice, kindness, and an unwavering commitment to serving others.
This short and lively biography takes middle-grade readers on an exciting journey through Liddell's life, highlighting his upbringing as a missionary kid, his battles with serious illnesses, and his imprisonment during World War II.
