Tip Lewis and His Lamp
Pansy
Book Overview:
Tip Lewis is a mischievous, unpromising scamp. One Sunday, a visiting Sunday school teacher tells his mission class how her minister had grown up in similarly bad circumstances, but had decided to follow God and had never regretted it. Tip decides to try to BE somebody, like that minister did. He is given a Bible - his lamp - to use as a guide, and from there, his life begins to change.

How thankfully Tip bowed his head that morning; his heart had taken in some of the sweet words. That sacred head had been crowned with thorns, indeed, but he knew it was crowned with glory now,—and he knew that Christ had suffered and died for him! He joined with his whole heart in Mr. Burrows's prayer; and, though Bob pulled his hair and tickled his foot and stepped on his toes, the bowed head was not lifted, and his spirit gathered strength.

I read this in 5 days, then turned around and started reading it to my children. They're thoroughly enjoying it too, and it's actually fun to read aloud.

I enjoyed this reread even if this version has been edited and slightly changed from the original.

At the beginning of the story, Tip Lewis has practically nothing going for him. His family lives in squalor, his father is dying, he’s doing poorly in school, and he runs around with bad boys. Then he hears a gospel story that makes him want to change. He decides to follow Jesus and totally turns hi
Excellent story . . . I always enjoy reading and re-reading this book.
I loved this book!! It's a wonderful example and lesson on really using the Word of God as a lamp unto our feet - teaching us to truly examine what we do by the word of God. God says that if we love Him we will obey Him and to be doers of the Word, not hearers only! That is just what Tip did and tea
