Ashley's Amish adventures series

the true story of an author staying with the Amish

"Ever wondered what it would be like to stay inside an Amish home, make Amish friends, or go to an Amish wedding? Now you can experience what everyday Amish life actually looks like in this author's journal about when she stayed with the Amish for research. This updated, improved version now has 90+ photos. NOTE: (This book was previously called the Ashley's Amish Adventures Series, books 1 & 2, which have now been combined into this one book). Join bestselling author Ashley Emma as she travels to the Amish community of Unity, Maine and stays with three Amish families as part of her research for her Amish novels. Come along on the fascinating journey as Ashley learns everything she can about the Amish as she rides in buggies, shells buckets of peanuts, attends Amish church services, helps make 100 quarts of applesauce, learns Amish customs, teaches in the schoolhouse, visits an Amish family in Lancaster, and attends an Amish wedding. Most of all, she makes lasting friendships with the Amish. What does an Amish home look like inside? What happens at an Amish wedding? How do rules in Amish communities differ? Why do the Amish live the way they do? These journals will not just answer these questions, they will show you what it truly means to be Amish. Now includes new photos from Lancaster and Ronks, PA, taken in 2020! This journal is NOT written like an Amish novel. This book is a true story." --, Back cover
