Dear parents, teachers, and TRAILBLAZER readers,
You are about to take an exciting adventure and meet a great Christian heroAmy Carmichael, missionary to India. For us, one of the most fun parts of writing the TRAILBLAZER BOOKS is doing the research. The Hidden Jewel was no exceptiondigging up facts about missionaries, learning about the British Empire, exploring the fascinating country of India and its people and customs, discovering Indias complicated history and how that affected missionaries like Amy Carmichael. We hardly knew where to stop!
We hope reading The Hidden Jewel will whet your appetite to find out more about India and Amy Carmichael. Use this Curriculum Guide by our good friend and fellow writer Julia Pferdehirt to launch you on a journey of discovery. You can also learn a little more about us and some of the other TRAILBLAZER adventures waiting for you on our Web site.
