A Young Folks' History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Aimed at young readers, this chronological account presents the origins and development of the Latter-day Saint movement, describing early visionary experiences, the emergence of a new scripture, restoration of authority, formal organization, missions, and repeated persecution that led to migration and western settlement. It traces community-building efforts, temple construction, changing presidencies, and institutional growth into the early twentieth century. Chapters combine narrative history with review questions, topical assignments, maps, and illustrations to encourage classroom use and to highlight themes of faith, sacrifice, leadership, and communal perseverance.
