Joni Eareckson Tada: The Girl Who Learned to Follow God in a Wheelchair
Getty, Kristyn; Pang, Hsulynn (Illustrator)
In this beautifully illustrated hardback, Kristyn Getty recounts Joni Eareckson Tada's lively childhood, life-changing accident and challenging adjustment to a very different way of life, and shares how God has used her in amazing ways to bless others.
Children will hear how, when a terrible diving accident left her severely disabled, Joni was left with a lot of questions about God. It was easy to trust him when she was healthy and happy, but did she want to follow him now that life was so hard?
As young ones discover how God cared for Joni and how Joni held on to her faith and used her circumstances to love others, they'll be inspired about the great things they can do for God. And they'll be encouraged to be a friend to those with disabilities or in hard situations.
As well as being an award-winning hymn writer and a mother of four, Kristyn writes as a good friend of Joni, bringing a personal touch to the story.

Westminster Bookstore Note: This book contains cartoon or artistic images of Jesus. There are many people in our constituency who, in a sincere effort to honor the second commandment, refrain from the use of any kind of drawings or pictures of Jesus, even if not intended for a worship context. Out of respect for those who take this position, we have sought to add a note to books in our children’s category which have drawings or depictions of Jesus so that they can factor that into their buying decisions, as they would if they could inspect the books physically.
