He was a Christian Socialist and spent his life campaigning for such things as better education for girls, and improving the living conditions of the working class. Victorian society was very inflexible and Kingsley was soon branded as a radical. His patriotic attitude to the Crimean War (1854 - 6), made him acceptable again and he became Chaplain to Queen Victoria. Later, royal influence led to his appointment as a Professor of History at Cambridge University. During his 'out of favour' years he was a devoted priest in Hampshire and put his beliefs into practice.

One by one, the king gives away his many possessions, and finds that the more he gives away, the happier he is. Finally, when the king has nothing, the quiltmaker gives him the promised quilt.

And the time when one can most readily obtain a familiarity with the Bible is in early life. Those who in childhood learn the Story of the Bible are fortunate, for they will never forget it. In this unabridged and unedited edition you will find all the principal stories of the Bible, each one complete in itself, while together combining to form a continuous narrative. With 168 stories from both the Old Testament and the New Testament, there is ample material for a full year of reading. Since the book is designed to lead the young reader to the Bible itself, and not away from it, the language of the Bible, or a language somewhat like that of the Bible, has been employed. The Bible stories are made plain with explanation of unfamiliar terms as they are introduced, but the stories themselves are not rewritten or changed. In avoiding doctrinal bias, the author hopes that all denominations of Christians may feel at home in the pages of this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eby Jesse Lyman Hurlbut\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yesterday's Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45830361252026,"sku":"9781599151786","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0444\/2213\/5968\/files\/imageloader_3af85124-fb26-4cd7-9313-a7e928c2c8a8.jpg?v=1778073078"},{"product_id":"tomie-depaolas-favorite-nursery-tales","title":"Tomie Depaola's Favorite Nursery Tales","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiscover Tomie dePaola's versions of well-known poems, fables, and stories featuring his beloved style and wit, sure to delight young readers and older fans alike.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Tomie's signature wry humor and winking charm, this collection of retellings is a beautifully illustrated ode to favorite childhood stories like \u003ci\u003eThe Three Bears\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e The Billy Goats Gruff\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Rumpelstiltskin\u003c\/i\u003e, and classic fairytales from Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm.
