"The Child Who Died and Lived Again" by Favell Lee Mortimer is a children's religious story written in the mid-19th century. The book is designed to impart moral and spiritual lessons to young readers, centering on themes of faith and resurrection. It draws from biblical narratives to convey deep truths about life, death, and the existence of the soul. The narrative revolves around the story of Jairus, a father who pleads with Jesus to heal his dying twelve-year-old daughter.
