Little Suzy's Six Birthdays

This is a modern translation with 25 new illustrations. This is a completely edited,  rewritten edition of this book, not a scan.  In this modern translation of a vintage favorite, watch Suzy enjoy celebrating her birthdays as she grows from a baby to six years old. Whatever surprise happens, Little Suzy joyfully spends her special days with family and friends while learning to be thankful for all that God has given her. She learns to love God with all her heart, and knows that Jesus is her best friend. This is a perfect bedtime story for parents to share a chapter or two with their children each night. Its serene nature has a quieting effect on busy little minds. The “Little Susy Books”, originally written by Elizabeth Prentiss in the 1850’s, were very popular among children and parents alike. They taught children important lessons with tenderness and love. Elizabeth longed to see people loving God as much as she did and this is apparent in all her works, from children’s books to adult fiction, hymns to poetry.

 Rebecca Perkins has admired Elizabeth Prentiss’s writings and was excited to discover the "Little Susy Books" and share them with her granddaughter. She has updated them for easier reading so they can be enjoyed by a new generation, with the prayer that they will touch children’s lives today as they touched children a century and a half ago.
