    Through firsthand research and personal relationships, Suzanne Woods Fisher has collected more than 200 proverbs that uncover the rich heritage, folklore, faith, values, history, and essence of the Plain People. These proverbs serve as teaching tools and maxims for practical living–but they’re not just for the Amish. They’re for anyone who seeks God’s wisdom and truth for everyday circumstances.

    Ranging from the simple to the profound, from the serious to the humorous, these sayings will stick with you through life’s joys and sorrows. With beautiful full-color photos throughout, Amish Proverbs is the perfect gift for any occasion.

    Sitting down reading through Amish Proverbs was like sitting with my grandmother in her kitchen. The stories and proverbs warmed my heart and touched my soul. This is a beautifully written and illustrated book and would make a wonderful gift for any woman.

    Some of the topics include money, faith, work ethic and many more. When you are trying to relax after a crazy day sit down and glean the wisdom found in this collection of proverbs, your will find your stress melting away. I believe this will be a book I refer to often.

    The Amish are fascinating people. There is an Amish community about 50 miles west of where I live and when I am driving in that area I love to check out their little shops with all kinds of homemade crafts and goods.

    I love reading about the Amish…I am a friend of Suzanne’s on FB so I am blessed with the opportunity to read the proverbs when she posts them. I would love, love a chance to win this book.
