- Synopsis
- An overweight, short-tempered Amish teenager learns to control his eating habits and his anger after running away to live as a hobo. Andy Maust, a younger brother of Ellie (Ellie's People, book 1), belongs to a close-knit Amish family and community. As a teenager during the Depression, he is attracted by a hired man's glowing tales of a drifter's life. Andy resents other boys making fun of him because of his weight and playing tricks on him. He never feels part of the group. After his dog is mysteriously killed, Andy leaves home for life on the road. Hard times follow Andy, but so does his Amish upbringing. Will he find his way home? Would the Amish accept him back? And would Aire still want to be his girlfriend?
