"The Story of John Wesley, Told to Boys and Girls" by Marianne Kirlew is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book focuses on the life of John Wesley, a prominent religious leader and the founder of the Methodist movement, presenting his story in a way that is accessible and engaging for children and young readers. It emphasizes his childhood, family background, and significant events that shaped his journey in faith and leadership. The beginning of the narrative introduces John Wesley, affectionately called "Jacky," as a young boy living in a large family in the village of Epworth. It describes his loving household, his father's role as a minister, and an incident where their home was tragically set ablaze by local wickedness, leading to a miraculous rescue of young Jacky. This opening sets the stage for Wesley's character development, showcasing themes of bravery, compassion, and the importance of faith instilled by his family, while hinting at the broader historical and religious impact he would later have.
