Book Description: Christian Ropp moves to Birch Creek to accept a teaching position in the rapidly growing Amish community. He’s determined to put the rambunctious school in order as well as check another task off his list: finding a wife. Of course, that would be much easier if women were like textbooks, straightforward and logical.
When an accident puts Christian out of commission, a new community member named Ruby Glick takes over his classroom. But Ruby’s exuberant teaching style clashes with Christian's careful methods and he worries his students will never be the same.
My Thoughts: I was so excited to see that Kathleen Fuller has a new novel out. She's a master story teller in my book! 😊
Christian Ropp is like a lot of teachers he not only wants to help the students but he won't allow chaos to rule the classroom either. Well, when an accident causes Christian to be out of school for awhile Ruby Glick who is new to the community substitutes for Christian.
Ruby's teaching techniques are not quite like Christian's procedures. Ruby is rambunctious and happy to put it lightly. Ruby doesn't seem to have a serious thought or a constructive idea. However, the kids do love her and do seem to be learning.
Poor Christian he doesn't know what to think! Will he ever have control over his class again.
Such a fun and humorous read! Lots of laugh out loud moments and trying to guess what will happen next.
Sometimes we learn to take ourselves less seriously and have faith for the moment.
Loved, loved this read!
