Though a small book, the story is just as powerful and impacting as any Lamplighter!!! It was so neat to watch how one act of kindness led to Collia having such an exciting career ahead of him! I truly loved the element of the Gospel message that was so plainly stated throughout the book that it was hard to miss where the author wanted to leave you! Lastly, getting to read about an entirely different culture and time era, that of Russia, also added to the excitement found in this little book!

Inspirational Hero I’m in the middle of reading Courage of Nikolai which was written in Russia in the late 1880’s. Although a challenge to read this book to my 8 y/o grandson, I can modify the language if needed, & he is fully engaged!
It will be interesting to read this to his almost 11 y/o brother!
Other than superheroes today, heroes like Nikolai are few and far between. One looks to leaders for such character, but we are often disappointed. Many children today don’t even have a father in the home to model such heroism.
Thank you for re-printing this wonderful story1
