"Book Three in the Gutsy Girls: Strong Christian Women Who Impacted the World series introduces readers to real-life hymn writer and steadfast advocate, Fanny Crosby. Shortly after birth, Fanny Crosby became blind. However, Fanny didn't let blindness, or any obstacle, stop her from living out God's plan for her life. Even though Fanny was known for being a gifted hymn writer, she spent much of her time serving others. Fanny created pills to help fight cholera, insisted on living in one of New York City's worst tenements, gave away almost all the money she earned, knitted mittens for soldiers, counseled prisoners, and constantly spoke of God's great love."--Amazon.com.

Moms, do you remember as you were growing up as a young girl who did you have as a Christian role model; naturally, it would have been your mothers. These days young girls need to have as a role model, more than ever, someone who has significantly impacted the world we live in today. These days, women excel in fields that only a few years ago had been considered unimaginable, such as astronomers and scientists.
In this outing of this book series of Gutsy Girls, author Amy L. Sullivan examines the life of Fanny Crosby, who became blind shortly after her birth; however, this affliction didn’t stop her from living out God’s plan for her life. Although she was blind, by Amazing Grace, she could see things sighted people couldn’t. While the hundreds and hundreds of hymns she wrote were coming from her heart, she had always been an unwavering supporter of the Lord.
In addition to being a devoted servant of the Lord, Ms. Crosby spent much of her life serving those around her who had far less by giving away much of her money. While she could have lived anywhere she wanted to, Ms. Crosby knew the Lord wanted her to be close to those who felt ignored by Him, where she would continually speak of the Lord’s love for them.
Ms. Crosby is the epitome of what happens when an individual uses their God-given skills and talents to honor the Lord and enter His service. My inner child, who is writing this review, loves what the book has taught her about becoming an adult and using her capabilities to help others as the Lord wants her to, which is why she and I have given the author and her book, Amy Sullivan, 5 STARS.
