Samuel Snyder's delightful verse and message of self-esteem appeals to both children and adults. Samuel is a six-legged spider, who despite being different from his eight-legged mates, spins... "Weaves of lace and pattern rare, striking strands of stunning beauty, first place winners at the fair" Samuel catches other unique insects to help them remember the gifts they bring to the world. After reminding each of their magnificence, he sets them free to return home and assist others in treasuring themselves.
This encyclopedia for Amish genealogists is certainly the most definitive, comprehensive, and scholarly work on Amish genealogy that has ever been attempted. It is easy to understand why it required years of meticulous record-keeping to cover so many families (144 different surnames up to 1850). Covers all known Amish in the first settlements in America and shows their lineage for several generations. (955pp. index. hardcover. Pequea Bruderschaft Library, revised edition 2007.)
