More than 70,000 copies sold in Trade Cloth. Reuben is an Amish boy who has five sisters, wants to drive the buggy, and gives his animals names ending in shine. One day he and his friends Sam and Ben see his neighbor's barn on fire. Several days later the neighborhood gathers for a barnraising. Reuben and his friends get to participate in the community event. This story takes the reader inside the world of the Amish with adventure, a sense of place, and a touch of humor. The art of internationally-known artist P. Buckley Moss captures the scene with striking elegance.
