  The remarkable true-life story of one of the greatest pioneers - and women - in American history. Known as Stagecoach Mary, Mary Fields was born into slavery in the late 1800s in Tennessee. A tall, sturdy girl by the age of 14, Mary was ordered to work in the cotton fields performing heavy labor with boys and men. After the 13th amendment was proclaimed, ending slavery, Mary worked a variety of jobs including chambermaid on a steamboat and as a helping hand at a convent in Ohio and later at a missionary school in the dangerous Montana territory. She then became the second woman, and the first African American woman, to be hired as a U.S. Postal worker, earning her the name of Stagecoach Mary. Contextual side stories offer further perspective on key details, locations, and people referenced in Mary's story. Archival photographs, drawings, and paintings are chronologically arranged, adding visual context to her compelling story, as well as the inclusion of further reading and website recommendations, maps, glossary, and index.

  Mary was the beloved daughter of a sailor and his wife who lived on a hill close to the sea. The rhyme calls her "Mistress Mary, quite contrary" because sad to say she was a contrary child often doing the exact opposite of what her mother and father advised for no reason but that she did not wish to follow their advice. But her parents loved her and knew that she would some day grow out of this peevish behavior. One day her father and brothers were to leave on a long sea journey and she asked him "	And how long will you be gone, papa?" He responded Why, just this, sweetheart," returned the sailor gravely; "all the time that it takes the cowslips and dingle-bells and cockle-shells to sprout from the ground, and grow big and strong, and blossom into flower, and, yes—to wither and die away again—all that time shall your brothers and I sail the seas. But when the cold winds begin to blow, and the flowers are gone, then, God willing, we shall come back to you; and by that time you may have grown wiser and bigger, and I am sure you will have grown older. So one more kiss, sweetheart, and then we must go, for our time is up." 
  After he left, Mistress Mary decided to plant a garden of these flowers to know when her father and brothers would return and that garden is what the poem is talking about. But it did not happen as she expected! Oh no! Listen to this delightful story to see how Mary learned to not be so contrary.

  The biblical teaching that Jesus was the Suffering Servant who carried the sins of His people when He went to the cross is vividly brought home to children in The Donkey Who Carried a King, the latest children’s book from respected theologian, author, and educator Dr. R.C. Sproul.Davey was a young donkey who was bored and unhappy because he was never given anything to do. Then one day, some strangers came to the gate―and Davey’s master picked him for a very special task. Davey carried the King, Jesus, into Jerusalem. A few days later, Davey saw some angry people making the King carry a heavy beam of wood. Davey could not understand it―until another donkey helped him see that the King was being a Servant on behalf of His people.The Donkey Who Carried a King offers a unique perspective on the events of Jesus’ Passion Week and calls all believers, both young and old, to follow in the footsteps of the Suffering Servant for the glory of God. Jesus was willing to leave the glories of heaven to suffer and die in this world on our behalf, so we should serve Him with all our hearts.
