I have never read a Tricia Goyer book before, but when I saw that this was based on a true story I was really intrigued. I really love historical and period books. Being set during war time was something I could get into. It didn't take long for me to want to know the hows and whys of everything and everyone. From almost the first page you can get really caught up in the story. It reads quickly too, or at least you don't notice the time pass as you read along. This is one book I am sure you will enjoy!
Inspired by a true story, A Christmas Gift for Rose is a heartwarming novella of sacrifice and deep love. Born in the midst of the hardships of The Great Depression, Rose grew up in Berlin, Ohio, in the arms of a loving Amish family. But she is overwhelmed by self-doubt when she learns the truth of her birth. She was born Englisch and abandoned when her family moved West in search of work. Was she meant to be Amish or would she have been better off growing up with her own kind—Englischers? And was her intended’s gift of discovering her birth family given out of love or fear?
