Description: This book takes us on a journey through the childhoods of some of history's most remarkable figures. The author delves into the formative years of these individuals, revealing how their early experiences shaped their later lives and achievements. From Saint Augustine's mischievous youth to the humble beginnings of Jeanne d'Arc in a peaceful French village, we see how their childhoods, often marked by both joy and hardship, laid the foundation for the extraordinary lives they would lead. The book explores the concept of how souls are built like temples, with early experiences and character traits serving as the unseen foundations upon which great lives are built. The author’s careful consideration of the childhoods of these figures gives us a deeper understanding of their lives and legacy, reminding us that even the greatest figures are human and shaped by the events and influences of their childhoods.
