In My Father’s House, by Corrie Ten Boom
This is the life story of the young Corrie Ten Boom. As she matures, she reaches out to others, helping form girls’ camps for activities and learning about the Lord. Later still, her family takes in children who need a home. Fast paced and alternately humorous and sobering, it makes for interesting reading. 197 pages; paperback. Note: You may be familiar with “The Hiding Place,” a story about how the Ten Boom family sheltered Jews during World War II. This book tells about the years before the war.
