by Cindy Woodsmall and Miriam Flaud
Two friends from different worlds—one Old Order Amish, one Englischer—share the truths that bring them together.
Best-selling novelist Cindy Woodsmall might seem to have little in common with Miriam Flaud, a woman immersed in the culture of Old Order Amish. But with nine children and almost 60 years of marriage between them, Cindy and Miriam both have found the secrets to facing life with strength and grace. Whether enduring financial setbacks, celebrating new babies and times of prosperity, grieving the crushing losses in the deaths of family and friends, or facing disappointments with their respective communities—through it all they find guidance for each day by looking to God.

My Review~
I love Amish books,and this one did not let me down! I really enjoyed this book from the beginning,it was like sitting down and actually being with the 2 women.As it is great to read about them,from 2 different worlds and become such good friends. It is a very easy read,as the chapters are short. You could take this book with you,and read it at any time. There are even recipes included that we can all make now!
Plain Wisdom is a heartwarming celebration of God, womanhood, and the search for beauty that unites us all. So grab your cup and your quilt and settle in for a soul-comforting read with Plain Wisdom.
