Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Alumnae News: March, 1897
But David was not only faithful and courageous. He was gentle. He sang sweet songs, and played so cunningly on the harp that he soothed the sick and troubled king. And he was obedient and returned to his sheep when his brothers went to war. And when he was sent with presents to the camp, and saw the giant Goliath defying his people, and saw that they were afraid, for the honor of his country he fought the giant and with God's help he won the victory. But David never would have dared to fight the giant if he had not been brave and faithful in caring for his sheep. His strength and courage came from overcoming while he was young.
