Book Description:

July 22, 1996 10 and up4 and up
Jews don’t eat meat from a pig. Amish don’t wear buttons. But two boys from extremely different cultures discover how similar they really are. “The story is fascinating as an in-depth examination of two disparate cultures that--the boys discover--share many of the commonalities of the human experience; it’s also a great coming-of-age novel, inhabited by people who may dress and speak differently from many readers but whose actions are entirely understandable.”--Kirkus Reviews
