Amazing Grace: William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End SlaveryAmazing Grace is the story of British abolitionist William Wilberforce (1759 1833), a man of whom it can truly be said: he changed the world. Human rights activist, cultural reformer, and member of Parliament, Wilberforce led a twenty year battle to abolish the British slave trade. He won this battle in 1807, and would go on to help abolish slavery itself in the British colonies shortly before his death in 1833. Eric Metaxas's best selling biography
Amazing Grace is the story of British abolitionist William Wilberforce (1759-1833), a man of whom it can truly be said: he changed the world. Human rights activist, cultural reformer, and member of Parliament, Wilberforce led a twenty year battle to abolish the British slave trade. He won this battle in 1807, and would go on to help abolish slavery itself in the British colonies shortly before his death in 1833.
Eric Metaxas's best-selling biography of Wilberforce introduces readers to this extraordinary man, who has remained relatively unknown to the American public. Hero to Abraham Lincoln and inspiration to the anti-slavery movement in America, Amazing Grace will inspire readers everywhere to stand up for what they believe in -- no matter the odds. Eric Metaxas is the author of Everything You Always Wanted to Know About God (But Were Afraid to Ask) and thirty children's books. He is founder and host of Socrates in the City. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, the Atlantic, the Washington Post, Books & Culture, Christianity Today, Mars Hill Review, and First Things. "A superb history of the British campaign against slavery ... Amazing Grace will prove to you how great a human effort abolition demanded." -- Stanley Crouch in the New York Daily News--USA TodayBinding Type: Paperback

Wonderful, simple book for children of all ages
Format: Hardcover
I am 65 years old and this was one of my first books. The revisions along the way have not changed the drawings that much. It is simple, but well illustrated, and gives a basic idea of good manners. I recommend it for every child - it makes them think about behavior. The way the author demonstrates "me first" and "whinney" have stuck with me all these years.

Great for encouraging speech
Format: Board book
I rarely write reviews but I just had to share my experience with this book. I have two year old twins. One has a diagnosed speech delay. They both love this book and are excited to read it. It has simple pictures that are easy for them to recognize and picture everyday things. They both love imitating the sounds. I think it’s a great for speech therapy for toddlers. Definitely recommend.

Perfect for early speech skills
Format: Board book
Our first child was speech delayed, so we're hitting the ground running this time with our 1 year old. This Imitation Book is PERFECT for introducing those early gestures and words to your little ones. There are interactive pages (like a door for knocking on and bubbles to pop) that really help your child engage with the book. Also, our 3 year old loves it right alongside his little brother! We also picked up the other 2 books in this collection to help aid in those early language skills.

As an SLP I love this simple engaging book
Format: Board book
Speech path here. I love this book. It was one of my son’s favorites and what I used to help him produce more words from 1-2years. He was my slowest to talk but loved the engaging sounds in this book. It’s simple but you can add a lot of info or new comments each time you read it with encouragement for your kiddo to produce simple early developing sounds. I utilized pausing with it too to tie my son the chance to produce the sounds. I gift it often now! Just wish it was a tadddd cheaper.

Fun and interactive.
Format: Board book
My one-year-old granddaughter loves this little book. There's no story, but it's interactive and fun, and the illustrations are cute and colorful. She enjoys doing all the things on the pages - knocking, waving, blowing, etc.
