Publisher Description
Join Merry Hanson, a very modern fifteen-year-old living in Pennsylvania's Amish country, as she faces the true-to-life struggles and heartfelt triumphs of growing up to be the best she can be in God's eyes. Susie Zook reminds Merry of her long-deceased twin, but the parallel becomes hauntingly similar in the wake of a terrible accident.

"I borrowed this book from my younger sister not realizing it was a teen novel, but was quickly drawn into the character's lives. I can't wait to share this series with my daughter, because Beverly Lewis does an amazing job of sharing the redemption story through the eyes of a teenage girl."

" This book is so good! Many times, people think, oh, its a Christian novel, it'll be all fake, none of the characters wil be bad, it will just be a fairytale. NOOOOOOO!!!! This book deals with relevant issues, although not many people live near the Amish. :) Good stuff! "
