Summary
"One dread hung over Martha, the fear that the little schoolhouse which she hoped to attend would be closed, and she would be forced to attend the large school which was not an Amish school, and where the beloved Teacher, who had visited them, did not teach. This delightful story of Martha's school written by a woman who lived long among the Amish people presents an authentic picture of these sturdy peace-loving farmers who are one of our finest types of Americans."
