Description

Courage, Care, and God’s Plan

Miriam: The Big Sister’s Secret tells the remarkable story of a brave young girl who played a vital role in God’s unfolding plan. Set in the harsh world of ancient Egypt, where Hebrew families faced danger and oppression, Miriam’s quick thinking and courage shine brightly.

Children will follow Miriam as she helps protect her baby brother, watches over him by the river, and boldly speaks to a princess—actions that help save the life of Moses. As the story continues, readers see Miriam grow, witnessing God’s power in miracles like the crossing of the Red Sea and His provision in the wilderness.

This engaging story highlights both Miriam’s strengths and her struggles, helping children understand the importance of trust, humility, and praise.
