Hes my favorite character |
| I really liked Teddys Button. Hes very honorable and not only is he that, but hes a truth teller, too. Hes my favorite character along with Nancy, of all the Lamplighter books Ive read so far. So, I think its a very classical story. I recommend this book for at least maybe people ages 20 and younger for all boys and girls. |

LIFE CHANGING!!!! |
| I have 4 boys; ages: 4- 11! Lets just say, they LOVED Teddys Button! God, only God opened doors of conversation, while we read the story. Not only did they beg, me to continue reading, they also, asked great questions, about God and the Holy Spirit.
My 5 year old said, Mom, I want to be in Gods army. We stopped right there and prayed together, after that, my 9 year old said, Mom, what about the Holy Spirit; My 11 year old, grabbed his BIBLE and said, where is it I will read it. I was smiling, laughing, & crying, as we dug into Gods word to find what He said about HIS Holy SPIRIT. We all all prayed together, to be filled with His Holy Spirit and to be in HIS army!!! O they love that story!!! God was with us, orchestrating that reading time!! It was beautiful, we will never forget it! LIFE CHANGING!!!! |

Enthusiastic suggestions of your sales personnel |
| We had been reading some of the wonderful Lamplighter books like The Hidden Hand and Ishmael and Self-Raised, but, in spite of the enthusiastic suggestions of your sales personnel, I had never bought Teddys Button for fear it was too elementary for our family. However, once we finally read this engaging story, our hearts were melted. Our 17-yr-old son and 15- and 9-yr-old daughters became more and more enthralled by this mischievous boy. Teddys struggles with his humanness became our own. Our son was a begrudging listener at first. By the end, he was so moved by the story that, when given a choice of topics at a summer film school, he chose Teddys Button as the story for his film project.
Thanks for giving us excellent material to enrich our lives. |

Thanks for the touching story! |
| Thanks for the touching story! One of our teachers in our Christian School just finished reading Teddy’s Button to her class. Several of the children carry “buttons” in their pocket and one little boy shared about his “bully” and how the story helps him to pray for him.
We love Lamplighter! |

Teddys Button |
| My daughter and I read Teddys Button when she was seven. This year, now 8, she read it on her own. This past Thanksgiving she gave it to her grandmother on a visit. We loved the story and the message. I heartily recommend it. My daughter says it was great reading on her own and that when she gets it back she wants to read it a million times. |

Every Christian household should have these books |
| I finished Teddys Button. Thank you. It was wonderful. This came at a perfect time. Tonight I will baby sit. I may have told you she is a terror and has spend days screaming. She is a little girl who wants to be good but the Bully takes over the majority of times. I have condensed the book down, in my head, and I am going to tell her the story, more modern times, tonight. Pray this goes well. Marketing definitely has to be done as I think every Christian household should have these books. |

It is my favorite so far. |
| Oh my. It is my favorite so far. It speaks in such easy to understand language about the battle we fight. The warfare we are in each day. I was greatly amused and inspired how Teddy names his enemy Bully! The Button Prayer on page 31 as I call it. A prayer a parent will pray for every child after reading this story. I am going to get my own handkerchief and write love on it for my own banner. This story is timeless. Page 151 was refreshing as Mrs. John reveals the continued battle we have as we mature from mischief to the battle that rages in our minds and keeps us wrestling and leaning on our Captain. |
