Publisher's Description

A teenage trip to the beach, a diving accident, and a life of disability testifies to the goodness of God.

 

Joni Eareckson is a well–known Christian speaker and author from America but there was a day when she was a teenage girl in a bathing costume with nothing on her mind but boys, make up and her beloved horse, Tumbleweed. However, all that changed one morning when an innocent dive turned into a tragic accident. Joni’s story is a wonderful testimony to God’s grace and power in someone’s life.

 

Healing may have been an amazing miracle that didn’t happen but Joni’s ongoing work with thousands of disabled people throughout the world is a miracle in itself.

 

The Trailblazer’s series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today.  This gripping and astonishing story from Catherine MacKenzie will challenge young readers to trust God as Joni Eareckson Tada did.

 

A well–known and long–standing series:

  • Over 50 titles
  • Great for ages 9 to 14
  • Published in 14 languages
  • Half a million books sold
  • Also available in box sets when one book is not enough! 7 themed box sets, each with 5 books

Each biography follows the trailblazer’s journey to faith, and on to the work that God had planned for them. With lots of dialogue, these engaging stories show how God uses normal individuals to bring about his purpose.

 

Each book features:

  • Thinking Further Topics for each chapter to help readers think about how what they’ve read applies to their life today
  • Timeline of important events in the lifetime of each book’s subject

Editorial Reviews

"If you like this, you'll love this:
Ten Girls who changed the World by Irene Howat.
This book includes a chapter on Joni Eareckson Tada that is aimed at a 8-12 readership."


~ Catherine MacKenzie

"TRY ANOTHER TRAILBLAZER:
Corrie Ten Boom - The Watchmaker's Daughter, by Jean Watson.
This title is an ideal companion volume to Swimming against the Tide. Corrie was one of Joni's own heroines and the two women knew each other well before Corrie's death."
