Two things stand out about Fanny Crosby. She was blind for over ninety years. And she wrote over eight thousand hymns and gospel songs about her Savior. A short chapter book written for young readers and family read-alouds, Fanny Crosby: Queen of Gospel Songs focuses primarily on the great hymn writer's cheerful childhood in spite of her blindness, and her dramatic conversion--after becoming a nationally known poet.
