This book is the third in the "Ellie's People" series.
Rachel was born in a South American country (they don't say which one) to her Mennonite Missionary parents. She is now seven and missionaries' lives are threatened, so they have decided to return to Ohio. Rachel is nervous about her move to the US. She is used to the simplicity of her life and the friends she knows. When she does move back home, she sees there is a lot of worldliness she never even imagined existed that she is more drawn to the ways of her Amish grandparents than the ways of her own parents' Mennonite community. She practically ends up living and growing up with her Amish family because of how drawn to it she is. This book is about her time with them. It resembles the first book quite a bit more than the second book (which I liked the mot so far). Keep in mind this is a middle grade aged book and I am 30. It was a cute story and I wish I had read it as a child. I read this in a day.
