NOT your typical Amish book. This story is about an Englisha girl that wishes to be Amish and her Amish friend that desires to be an Englisha.
Debbie has everything a girl could ask for, a handsome boyfriend, fancy clothes, a college degree and a brand new job. For Debbie, she finds it all so overwhelming—the traffic, the hustle and bustle, the tv dinners and lack of family time.
Debbie desires the simple life of her Amish friends, the Beilers. Having grown up nearby, she has frequented their home on multiple occasions and holds their friendship and their lifestyle dear and when her mother makes it known that she wants Debbie to move out—she inquires about renting room from the them. With the understanding that she wishes to convert in due time, Bishop Beiler grants her request and allows her to move into their home.
Debbie is quickly accepted as part of the family and becomes privy to a set of struggles that each of the Beiler girls are facing.
Verna finds the nerve to stand up to her father and has let a young man bring her home from a singing. Things seem to be going well until he’s accused of a terrible crime that may drive them apart.
Lois is determined to leave the Amish faith and become an Englisha. She wants to drive a car, go to college, watch television and experience all that the world has to offer.
Ida is interested in a fellow who has his eyes set on Debbie or any other girl in the community—except for Ida. Of course, this is a problem for the middle Beiler sister and I really felt badly for her.
In this book we realize that no matter your religion or your way of life that we all have problems to overcome and many times we all have feelings of insecurity.
