A is for Amish.

"A is for Amish" by Shelley Shepard Gray is a solid series opener that follows four siblings, Beth, Jonny, Kelsey, and Martin Schrock, who dream of leaving their Englisch lives behind for a simpler Amish lifestyle. Their Amish grandparents agree to let them live with them for a year before being baptized, but complications arise when Martin becomes interested in their neighbor and Kelsey develops feelings for Preacher Richard. The book effectively sets the stage for the rest of the series, leaving readers eager for the next installment. This inspirational fiction is likely to appeal to both existing fans of Gray and new readers. [Extracted from the article]
