Christy by Catherine Marshall

Eager to do her share helping people, Christy Huddleston left her family in North Carolina for the mountain people of West Virginia. She encountered many struggles in working with this group of people who seemed to be more than a century behind the rest of the world. Between feuds and superstitions, Christy has a hard time showing God’s love to the people.

Inspired by Catherine Marshall’s mother, this book relates events and people who are strangers to us today. This book is easy to read and could be read as young as late elementary school. There is a children’s series based off of the TV show that is easier to read, breaking down the novel into smaller pieces.
