A delightful book on a family in France facing persecution by the Roman Catholic rulers because of their Calvinist faith. Simply written, aimed at children for them to read or have it read to them. However, it's a also an informative read for adults, especially regarding the struggles of the Huguenots.

This short book is written for children, but the content can hold anyone's attention. The story centers around a Hugenot family that daily lives under the persecution of the general population in France.
