Do Great Things For God - Fanny Crosby: The Girl Who Couldn't See But Helped The World To Sing
Book Description:
Inspire kids to use their talents to glorify God through this biography of Fanny Crosby, one of the world’s most famous hymn writers.
Kids will be amazed learning the true story of Frances—or Fanny, as everyone called her—who was blind for most of her life but rejoiced that the first thing her eyes would see would be "the face of Jesus in heaven.” Fanny used her extraordinary musical ability to write hymns we still sing today, such as "To God Be the Glory" and "Blessed Assurance".
This beautifully illustrated children's biography of Fanny Crosby (1820-1915) is part of the Do Great Things for God series, which is designed to show kids that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
These stories can be read to young children or enjoyed independently by early readers. The free extras make these stories useful for homeschool, Sunday school, missions events, and more.

Endorsement:
I am so excited about this book! Our singing of the Lord shapes who we are more than we often know, and Fanny Crosby’s deep joy dances towards each new generation through the song of her writing and the song of her life. Her voice helped me find mine.
