N1  - Includes discussion questions and an excerpt from Pebble Creek Amish series book 2 : A home for Lydia; Young Adult
N2  - "Amish schoolteacher Miriam King loves her students. At twenty-six, most women her age are married with children of their own, but she hasn't yet met anyone who can persuade her to give up the Palin school that sits along the banks of Pebble Creek. Then newcomer Gabriel Miller steps into her life, bringing his daughter, an air of mystery, and challenges Miriam has never faced before.

At first Gabe just wants to be left alone with a past that haunts him, but the loving and warm Wisconsin community he and his daughter have moved to has other plans for him. After a near tragedy, he hesitantly returns offers of help and friendship and discovers he can make a difference to the people of Pebble Creek--and maybe to the Amish schoolteacher. --Back cover
