Lottie Moon: Drawn by a China Moon
"Dear Mollie, You can’t believe what is happening here in China. . . ."
Mollie’s best friend, Ida, and her family had left Virginia to live in a “heathen” country. Mollie couldn’t believe it. What about marrying handsome Southern husbands? Going to women’s college together? However, as she read Ida’s letters, Mollie’s frustration slowly turns to fascination. Ida described her exciting life among the Chinese—sea worms for supper, wearing men’s pants, Chinese New Year, and helping with the amazing missionary work of Lottie Moon.
As the years went by, China endured war, disease, and rebellion, and Molly became more and more worried about Ida. Realizing that each letter she receives could be the last, Mollie wanted to help her beloved pen pal. But how . . . and at what price? Helping her friend meant changing her life...forever!
