About Amish Proverbs: Simplify your life with Amish wisdom

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.

About Suzanne Woods Fisher:  Suzanne Woods Fisher is the CBA bestselling author of The Choice, The Waiting, Amish Peace, and Amish Proverbs. Her interest in the Anabaptist cultures can be directly traced to her grandfather, W. D. Benedict, who was raised in the Old Order German Baptist Brethren Church in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. Benedict eventually became publisher of Christianity Today magazine. Suzanne is the host of a radio show called Amish Wisdom and her work has appeared in many magazines. She lives in California.

My Take on the Book:  This is such an awesome book of wisdom!  The chapters in this book include: Time, Money, Faith, Children & Family, In Word & Deed, Work Ethic, Handling Adversity, Education, Community, Character and Just for Fun!  It is explained that "proverbs are short sentences drawn from long experiences."  That makes total sense to me.  I never really thought about it before but each culture has their own proverbs and as the book pointed out, to know the people and their  culture, know their proverbs. 

Here are a few of my favorites:  If you let your children have their own way, you must not complain if they give you trouble. Swallowing words before you say them is so much better than having to eat them afterward. Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it because a butterfly.   

The pictures are simple and beautiful in the book.  This is a book you can read over and over.  It would make a great gift for any one at any age.
