Publisher's summary

Best-selling author Beverly Lewis has received numerous awards for her books depicting Amish life.

While taking her morning run, Amish schoolteacher Jodi Winfield makes a startling find on the side of the road - a preschool-aged girl, crying and clad only in her undergarments. Jodi takes the girl with her, but no one knows who she is. Then fate brings Jodi to Hickory Hollow’s Lancaster Old Order Amish, and she finds clues to the girl’s identity.

The Guardian

Little Amish preschooler is lost and then found by Englisher Jodi. The story takes us on Jodi's interaction with the Amish community of Hickory Hollow. I enjoyed listening to the frank and inspired talks that were very useful to me.

I enjoyed this book. An Amish toddler, Sarah, falls out of the family carriage and vanishes. Jodi is an Englisher who is house-sitting and between jobs. The entire neighborhood comes out to hunt for her without success. Meanwhile Jodi (while jogging) discovers the Amish child on the roadside crying and alone. With the help of her friends, Jodi is able to return Sara. Mamma is so grateful, she invites Jodi to visit as often as she likes. Jodi and the Amish family become close friends.
Jodi is having problems accepting her sister's 'premature' death as well as the testing of her faith. The Amish family also is struggling with the 'premature' death of the husband and father. However the trials have made their faith stronger. The interactions between Jodi and the Amish family and community help show real struggles, acceptance and forgiveness.

Not her best

Love Beverly Lewis books. This one wasn’t a favorite. Not her best story. Still sweet Amish culture though.
