"Manny Tremaine didn't want to live in the country at all, and certainly not in the Amish community in Pennsylvania where his mother and stepfather had settled...Manny did get a garden, and he grew such an amazing number of beans that he was glad to accept the neighbors' help in selling them. ...Only after he has worked hard and faced danger with the Glicks does Manny realize that if he is to be treated as a grown up he must act like one. In the process, he discovers that both of his wishes have come true - a garden of his own and a wonderful new friend." [dust jacket]
Despite her father's objections, a young Amish girl secretly looks forward to attending public school where she makes a best friend and gains a new perspective on her family's way of life.
"A boy had to ride sometimes, or he would burst in pieces! Twelve-year-old Dirk, a son of the plain people, dearly loved his family and would not have traded shoes with any city boy.

It was hard to want to ride a horse so badly he 'could taste it,' and to have to forego the pleasure because 'a horse is to work.'" [book jacket]
