This read was a delight, as I knew it would be when I saw the authors. The only problem for me was that it ended when I wanted more!
Three new teachers, each beginning their careers and changing their locations. Being young and away from friends and family, and beginning a new life in a new location, for two of these woman had to be hard. The third young woman, had put her Amish life on hold, will she remain?
Answers are forthcoming, and you will be quickly involved in each of these novellas. A great book not to be missed!

This collection of novellas is one of my favorites that I have read and I have read several. I loved the cover as soon as I saw it and when I saw the three authors who penned stories in this collection, I knew I had to read it.
It was hard to put this book down once I started reading it because the authors all wrote stories that held my attention throughout. This is a sweet and delightful collection, that is suitable for all ages and is a fun, fast read.

An Amish Schoolroom is an easy-to-read, engaging collection of three novellas by three of my favorite Amish fiction writers. Even though these are short novellas, each provides a complete, satisfying handling of its characters and subject. Through these stories, we get a glimpse into the lives of three single Amish teachers and the challenges they face as they leave their homes and travel to another community to pursue their life’s calling. We also meet the three special men who win their hearts and help them through the challenges. With smoothly flowing plots, endearing characters, sweet romance, and inspiring spiritual truths, these stories will entertain you and make you smile. I thoroughly enjoyed this collection and highly recommend it.

I love story compilations, romance, and Amish storylines, and this book delivers on all three! This book has three stories that all center around different teachers new to their Amish schools and the friends and love they find along the way. Though each story is short, you grow to care about the characters and what is happening to them. The storylines are great and all wrap up great at the end. The styles of all 3 authors go well together. An all-around good Amish romance read!
Three of my favorite "Amish" authors have each written a short story that you will be able to breeze through in a lazy afternoon or relaxing evening. Each was a sweet romance about Amish teachers meeting their sweethearts as they all make a fresh start in new communities.
If you like Amish romance, you'll definitely enjoy these stories. They'll warm your heart and put a smile on your face.
Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review. All opinions are my own.
These three wonderful authors of Amish books come together to create a book of three sweet novellas.
Each book centers around a young Amish woman who leaves her home and travels far away to another community to become a teacher in an Amish school. Each experiences homesickness and feelings of inadequacy, but soon learn that they each have a special calling to be a part of the community as a teacher. Throughout circumstances that each one encounters, there is a special Amish young man who helps them through trials and become very special to them.

1 book = 3 authors + 3 stories = a wonderful read
It a set of three stories. I enjoy reading Amish books and this does not disappoint. I really enjoyed the book overall and would recommend it to others.
An Amish Schoolroom is a set of three novellas each written by wonderful authors of Amish fiction. I loved this book. The three young Amish women leave their homes to teach in other communities, along the way they meet young Amish men and fall in love. The stories are well written and enjoyable. They are quick and easy reads that will leave you satified..I am grateful to netgalley and Zondervan publishing for the complimentary arc of this book, the opinions are my own thoughts.
This is a nice collection of stories that depict the lifestyle of Amish women who teach school. Each teacher leaves her own community and family and relocates to an unfamiliar area. The stories have fast moving plots, magnetic characters and a sweet romance too. These are just right for a calming read before bedtime or a peaceful vacation entertainment.
I want to thank the publisher and NetGalley for my advanced copy. I enjoyed these stories by three of the popular writers of the genre today. This is my personal opinion.
Three amazing authors share their stories about different young ladies who want to be teachers and how they get more than the joy of being teachers to young people. They get the experience of leaving their homes to teach and letting young men who will capture their hearts. Each story was made personal by each author and kept me captivated.
I was given a copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher for my honest opinion and review.
In general I am not a fan of novellas, as they seem to be rushed and missing key parts. This is not the case here though, with these three short stories about Amish women who wan t to teach school and fall in love. Sweet stories, and all fell complete. Enjoyable read, and would be perfect for summer reading. Highly recommend this book and the three authors.
My favorite thing about these collections is that there's always at least one story that tugs your heart strings, and this one was no exception. The three women featured in these stories are teaching at Amish schools, and each is a new teacher feeling her way through it. There are varying circumstances - one has just returned to the community from the Englisch world - but they must all find their footing in a new community and new job. Luckily for them, there's always a handsome man nearby... These sweet romances are about finding yourself, gaining confidence, and following the path God has for you.
These three short stories by different authors are all about young unmarried Amish ladies who want to be teachers. Each one goes to another place to do their job. Each one meets a local Amish gentleman and falls in love. Each setting is different and each situation is different and together they give a birds eye view of what an Amish one room school is like. These were entertaining and informative and each one gives you a whole story in one sitting.
