My Top Ten Books is a series of short book
reviews. I will post every two days. Also, I am very sorry for not
posting since last Sunday. I was on vacation and didn't have enough
reviews written for the entirety of it.
The next book on my list is written by Virginia
Sorensen. Plain Girl.
This book is based in an Amish house that has been split
apart. Esther, the main character, her brother Dan has run away and
was shunned by his family. “We shall never speak his name again”
said Esther's father the night Dan went away.
Esther has been schooled at home her entire life but now
she has to go to public school or Her father will go to jail. So
Esther will have to go to school for the first time on Monday. Her
father has always been leery about taking her to school because that
was part of the reason Dan had gone away. But now he had no choice.
He told Esther to never even look at the other kids. But after a few
days she had already begun to talk with another girl named Mary. And
after about a month Esther even became her friend. But would Father
find out? And if he did what would happen!?
This book dives into the Amish culture and what happens
in an Amish household. And I would most definitely recommend this
book to Fiction lovers. It is definitely one of my favorite books. So
maybe you will like it as much as I did.
