The Young Cottager: Little Jane of Brading (Children's Heritage Series)

Legh Richmond’s The Young Cottager, first written in the mid-1800s, is the touching and true story of young Jane of Brading, a young lady and a member of the church he served. Jane’s strength of faith even during poor health and multiplied sufferings captured her pastor’s notice, as a marvelous and striking example. Jane, also the first convert of his ministry there, is the subject of this beautifully told story.

2. Desiring a Heart Fit for Heaven
3. A Child’s Admittance to the Lord’s Supper
