For those of you who haven't read the books, Elsie is a fictional, 8-9 year old Christian girl living before the Civil War. I won't tell you all the details in hopes that you will read them (On a side note: I think you will enjoy them most if you are a girl!), but I will say that Elsie Dinsmore is a godly girl who is such an example to me of how not to grow weary of doing good, how to love your enemies, and how to put your full trust in Jesus when you feel alone. Because this young girl faces some really difficult trials, even in the first two books that I have read! I can't wait to read the rest of them. God has used the Elsie Dinsmore books to really strengthen my faith.
