The Courageous Woman and The Secret Room

Read the true story of Corrie ten Boom, who saved hundreds of Jewish people during World War II.

In 1940, the Germans invaded the Netherlands, and Corrie ten Boom and her family helped to hide as many Jewish people as possible. They even had a secret room built in her bedroom.

Corrie and her sister were caught by the German army and sent to a concentration camp. Corrie’s trust in God gave her the strength to go on until the war ended. From then on, Corrie talked about her life to big crowds, saying, “There’s no pit so deep that God’s love is not deeper still."

This beautifully illustrated children's biography of Corrie ten Boom (1892-1983) is part of a series designed to show kids that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
