I am just tickled pink--or red, I suppose, in honor of the holiday season--to find this unusual take on a classic! I seriously love how some authors take chances with new things. I mean, who'd have thought of doing a modern-day retelling of A CHRISTMAS CAROL with the Amish? It sounds totally wacky, right? But it works, I swear. And not just that, but the story somehow manages to stay true to Amish beliefs and to the core story that Dickens was also telling, all while still being its own thing.If you like Christmas, and you like Dickens, and you like Amish stories, give this one a go! And if you're not sure, try it, anyway! You might be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
