Produktbeschreibung
Teddy's Button is a heartwarming story by Amy LeFeuvre which has entertained countless children and adults over the years. This reprint contains the three original illustrations appended to the first edition. We join the title character, who is a proud and strong-willed young boy. Openly gregarious, Teddy is a natural storyteller and makes friends in his locality thanks to this talent. His favorite tale of all however is one which concerns his father: a brave soldier who fought and died in battle when Teddy was very young. Proud of his father's bravery, Teddy carries a button from the very jacket his Dad fought in. Eventually Teddy begins to attend church, where he steadily realizes that the finest captain of all is not of the military, but of the Lord. Gradually, Teddy's belief in Jesus Christ strengthens; he realizes that his assertive nature could well verge on bullying, and that by serving God he can extinguish his capacity for bad deeds.
Autorenporträt
Amy Le Feuvre was the pen name of Amelia Sophia Le Feuvre, an evangelical Christian author of children's books and short stories who lived in England from 1861 to 1929. She published for various magazines, including The Quiver, and is the author of over 65 books. The topics of Le Feuvre's paintings notably reflected her religious convictions. She also published under the alias Mary Thurston Dodge, despite frequently using her own name. A Strange Courtship, her last book, was released in 1931, two years after her passing. Her first novel, Eric's Good News, was initially published in 1894. Le Feuvre is most known for her 1896 book Teddy's Button, which, like many of her other works, centres on a misbehaving youngster with good intentions that grownups fail to see. Revell in Chicago, Dodd Mead in New York, Religious Tract Society in London, and Hodder & Stoughton in London were some of her publishers. At Exeter, Devonshire, she passed away after 68 productive years.
