Official synopsis Publisher
Elsie couldn’t stop her tears, and she clung to her father as she sobbed. ‘Oh, Papa. Can it be true that I don’t love Jesus as much as I used to?’ ‘Is that all, dear? I think you are being a bit silly.’ After she had gone, Horace thought about the strange incident. ‘I wonder if I will ever understand her. How often I seem to hurt her when I mean only to please.’ In this sequel to Elsie’s Endless Wait, readers will travel once more to the pre-Civil War world of Elsie Dinsmore, the young heiress deprived of a parent’s love until she was almost nine years old. Elsie and her father seem to have reconciled, but can Horace Dinsmore ever accept his daughter’s Christian faith? Or will his pride lead to tragic consequences? What is the terrible decision Elsie must make? Elsie’s Impossible Choice is the second book in the Elsie Dinsmore: A Life of Faith series. These intriguing stories of a young girl’s faith, purity of heart, and simple Christian devotion became an American classic over a hundred years ago. Based on and adapted from the original 1869 novels by Martha Finley, Elsie’s Impossible Choice continues the exciting and inspiring story that has captivated generations of readers.
