An Amish Proposal for Christmas by Vannetta Chapman is a sweet story. I thought the story was well-written with steady pacing. I liked the characters in the story. I enjoyed getting to know Becca, Gideon, Amos, and the other four Yoder sisters. Becca's sisters are quite a bunch. I am looking forward to Eunice's story (she is a unique Amish woman). I loved the descriptions of the Shipshewana Outdoor Market ran by Becca's father, Amos. It sounds like a great place to shop especially at Christmastime. I like that Gideon and Becca became friends before a romance developed between them. There are good life lessons in the story. It is important to pray about a decision before making it. Being homesick is not just for children. It can happen to anyone at any age. One of my favorite lines from An Amish Proposal for Christmas is from Nathan, âGive love when you can, respect when you should, and alwaysâalwaysâput first things first.â Love, respect, and priorities is what Nathan means. I enjoyed learning a little about the Mennonite Disaster Services (MDS). An Amish Proposal for Christmas is the first book in the Indiana Amish Market series. I am looking forward to the next installment which features Becca's sister, Bethany (she loves to knit). An Amish Proposal for Christmas is an uplifting tale with bouncy buggy races, an amazing Amish market, scrumptious pretzels, travel zeal, singular sisters, and a charming Christmas market.
