A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. 10 very well written Amish short stories (book). They were all very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great Amish movie, or better yet a mini TV series. A very easy rating of 5 stars.
