Heroes for Young Readers-Nate Saint by Renee Taft Meloche illustrated by Bryan Pollard*

Nate longed for the Auca Indians in Ecuador to learn about Christ.  Any outsider who dared to  approach the tribe was killed.  Gradually he earned their trust.  Unfortunately, one of the natives lied about the Nate and his friends to cover up a wrong he had done.  As a result, Nate and his friends were killed.  Nate's sister returned to the tribe and led many to Christ.
Points to discuss/warning: death; one tribesman spends a night with an unmarried woman and then lies to cover up his wrong.
