About this listen
This heartwarming prequel to The Shunning is a tender story of love, belonging, and the courage to move forward.
After her widowed father remarries, nineteen-year-old Clara Bender is no longer needed to help run his household. Marriage seems like her best hope of moving out, but there are few young men in her tiny Indiana Amish community. When she comes across letters from her mother's aunt Ella Mae Zook, she sets off to visit Lancaster County's Hickory Hollow to decide where her future lies.
Ella Mae is not quite ready to move from the farmhouse where she and her recently deceased husband spent over fifty happy years, but her children are eager to resettle her, making Clara's visit seem like an answer to prayer. The two women form a warm bond while restoring an heirloom wedding quilt and sharing their lives, with Ella Mae confiding about a tragedy from her courting years. Eventually, Ella Mae suggests Clara stay for the summer, allowing Ella Mae more time with her and giving Clara an opportunity to meet the area's eligible young men. But when the unexpected happens, will Clara find where her heart truly belongs?

Story
For generations, Ellie Hostetler's family has tended their Lancaster County orchard, a tradition her twin brother, Evan, will someday continue. Yet when Evan's draft number is called up in the lottery for the Vietnam War, the family is shocked to learn he has not sought conscientious objector status, despite their Old Order Amish belief in nonresistance. The faraway war that has caused so much turmoil and grief among their Englisher neighbors threatens to touch much too close to home. Can she and her family find the courage to face a future unlike any they could have imagined?

And while her stepmother is kind, she's much younger than Mamm, and she simply doesn't understand Maggie or her illness the way Mamm did.

For generations, Ellie Hostetler's family has tended their Lancaster County orchard, a tradition her twin brother, Evan, will someday continue. Yet when Evan's draft number is called up in the lottery for the Vietnam War, the family is shocked to learn he has not sought conscientious objector status, despite their Old Order Amish belief in nonresistance.

But when the deacon in charge of the arrangements tells her there aren't places enough for everyone, she agrees to go live with her father's second cousin and his family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Beside the fact that Lena has never been more than a few miles from home, she's never met the family she will now be living with. But worse than that is the thought of being separated from her siblings. How will they manage without her to care for them - especially eight-year-old Chris?

Beverly’s Best Book
I’ve been a passionate fan of Beverly Lewis books for nearly fifteen years. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all of her stories, but The Heirloom is by far my favorite. I absolutely adored getting to see a peek into Ella Mae’s youth. Bravo, Beverly. Five stars are not enough to describe this story.

As expected of Beverly Lewis, the book was wonderful; characters engaging.
However, the narrator had an automated sound to her reading; quite distracting.

Good Story--Not So Good Narration
The story is pure Beverly Lewis, with her wonderful, descriptive language and character development. She brings the reader right into the culture to where you can almost smell the bread baking! But then there's the narration. Part of the problem for me is that the narrator doesn't seem excited about the book. Her tone is somewhat mechanical and stilted. But my biggest frustration with the narrator is her mispronunciation of places. The story is set in PA. Clearly the characters who live there would know how to pronounce the names of places like Lancaster and Ephrata! Being a Pennsylvania girl, hearing these places mispronounced just grates on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard! Please, audiobook publishers, teach your narrators how to properly pronounce names and places, or edit their work more carefully!
