In this gentle tale set at Christmas time, author Linda Byler gives readers a look into Amish life. Ten-year-old twins, Annie and Fannie, are the focus of this story. With ten older siblings still at home, they are sometimes overlooked and often bossed around. Their mother is always busy, often stressed, and usually strict, especially, the twins believe, with them. Everyone has chores and responsibilities. The twins must deal with ornery chickens, collecting eggs and feeding them. And catching them when they get loose. At school, the teacher and scholars are busy preparing for the Christmas pageant. The twins are hoping for a horse for Christmas, even though they know in their hearts it could never be. And yet, they hope. This lovely novel is well written, with wonderful characters and an interesting storyline. The author explores the way some old world customs are changing a bit with the younger folk, much to the mother’s dismay. The end gives a glimpse into what the twin’s life will be as they get older. It’s a charming novel, a delightful read for any time, but especially at Christmas time. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Annie and Fannie are ten-year-old twins and the youngest of 12 siblings. Life is busy with so many living under the same roof, and though the twins love their family, they often feel overlooked. It's no fun being bossed around by older siblings, and Mam is often stressed and always strict. As Christmas approaches, the twins have the added burden of practicing for their little Amish school's play, but what they're really passionate about is getting a pony or horse. Oh, what they would give to have a horse of their own to ride and groom and care for. It's all they can think about. Well, that and the way their 30-year-old brother Mike is swooning over fancy Miriam. Will he ever get up the courage to ask her to be his girlfriend? Delightfully sweet and brimming with the details of Amish life, this Christmas tale will leave readers smiling over the simplicity of Amish culture and the complexities of families and romance that transcend every culture.
