Amy Harrison

A newly illustrated edition with reader's notes for tricky words. Complete and unabridged.

A Sunday lesson can be easy to remember—and surprisingly hard to live. As Amy Harrison tries to become kinder and more patient, she discovers that good intentions don’t always win against a quick temper.

Amy Harrison walks beside a chattering stream, wildflowers in her hands and Sunday school just ahead. In her quiet village, lessons about faith and kindness follow Amy home, where chores, sibling squabbles, teasing, and small disappointments put her resolve to the test. She wants to do what is right, but even her best efforts can falter—and trying again may feel impossible when she’s hurt or angry. Can Amy find the help she needs to let goodness take root and grow?

This complete and unabridged edition of Amy Harrison’s story includes reader’s notes to help young readers understand tricky words.

At Wise Minds Press we believe the years between childhood and the teenage leap are a golden window: curiosity runs high, vocabulary explodes and a single page can spark a lifetime of possibility. We were those wide‑eyed readers once—hungry for challenge, eager to roam far‑flung worlds, and guided by parents and teachers who knew the right story could light the path ahead. Today we honor that legacy by bringing time‑tested classics to young readers complete and unabridged, with reader's notes for the tricky words, and original illustrations for Grades 4‑7 (Ages 9‑12).

Our mission is simple: to place in every young reader's hands a bridge to literature's greatest adventures, turning boundless imagination into confidence, empathy, and the readiness to write their own remarkable futures.
