American Founders Storybook

About this book

What kind of people did God use to build America? As the nation marks its 250th anniversary, the American Founders Storybook invites families to discover the answer together - one life at a time.In twelve read-aloud chapters spanning from Squanto to Booker T. Washington, retired pastor Mo Hodge tells the stories of the men and women whose faith, courage, and character shaped the American story. Written in the warm storytelling voice of the classic Egermeier's Bible Story Book, each chapter traces how God formed each life through five stages of character and calling - showing children not just what these heroes did, but who they became and why it mattered.Every chapter includes Did You Know? boxes filled with surprising historical details, along with questions for conversation around the dinner table or in the classroom. A Questions and Answers section, a full Appendix for the serious student, and a Family and Small Group Discussion Guide make the book equally at home in family devotions, Christian schools, homeschool curricula, and church settings.Drawing on nearly fifty years of pastoral ministry, Mo Hodge writes as a grandfather passing a treasured inheritance to the next generation - the conviction that faith, family, and freedom are gifts worth knowing, guarding, and handing down.Perfect for reading aloud with children ages 6 and up, the American Founders Storybook is Book Two of the Mo Hodge Legacy Series.
