This is the third book in this series that I have read and enjoyed, stories of the pioneering Amish, and their early lives and settlement in this country. This is a story about siblings, sister's who raise sheep, and brother's whom have just arrived and looking to put down roots. I loved how each family worked and provided for all of the community, and thus ensure its survival. This story had me chuckling out loud, read as outgoing Christina tries to teach her sensible sister Hilda how to use her womanly wiles. Then the recipient of those batting eyes is Wilhelm, a bit baffled by the complete change in Hilda! Then we have his bother, Johan with the high opinion of himself, quite the ladies man, and this is the 1700's in very rural Pennsylvania. I am really enjoying reading about these early settlers of the Amish Community, and looking forward to more! I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Zebra, and was not required to give a positive review.
