Reuben and the Balloon

Reuben is back and ready for another adventure in the latest book from bestselling duo Merle Good and P. Buckley Moss. Reuben loves to watch hot air balloons glide above his Amish farm. But he never imagined that a balloon might actually land in a nearby field. Will Reuben get a chance to ride in the balloon? What will the farm look like when he’s up in the sky? And what will his bossy sister, Annie, say about his latest adventure? Good’s story takes the reader into the wonderful world of Amish children. Warm, rich illustrations from nationally renowned artist, Moss, bring to life the joy and activity of this farm and family. This revised edition features updated text and newly designed pages.

Merle Good has written numerous books and articles about the Amish. Good is the founder of the publishing house Good Books. He is a playwright and novelist and lives in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

P. Buckley Moss (Pat) first met the Amish in 1965 when she and her family moved to Waynesboro in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Admiring the family values and work ethic of her new neighbors, Pat began to include the Amish in many of her paintings. She lives in Mathews, Virginia.
