"Not since Kathleen Norris's Dakota: A Spiritual Geography have I read a more beautifully written or movingly told story, one whose minute particulars become a portal into universal significance. I promise: you will be transported."
--Bill Moyers "Reviews ""Recalled with fairness and wit, this tale of growing up after World War II shows how Mennonite life in Dutch Country--and all of America--changed."
--Julia Spicher Kasdorf "Reviews ""Shirley Showalter tells a compelling story of spiritual and cultural formation. Hers is a delicate dance between the tug of the outside world and the restraints of her birthright community."
--Donald B. Kraybill "Reviews ""Whether she is wearing her new letter jacket or biting a worm in two on a dare from her father, the young Shirley will win your affection."
--Ann Hostetler "Reviews ""Shirley Showalter is both a thoughtful historian and a balanced, inner journalist. She affirms--with detail, honesty, and humility--the need to break our own trail while honoring tradition."
--Mark Nepo "Reviews ""Showalter's portrait of this extraordinary little girl who wants to be 'big' will captivate and enchant readers of all generations."
--Hildi Froese Tiessen "Reviews ""This memoir provides an authentic rendition of a plain Mennonite girlhood, so rich in sensory details that it magically transports us into that world."
--Saloma Miller Furlong "Reviews ""Shirley's stories resonate powerfully with the tension we all live with--between our own aspirations and the expectations of others. You must read this book, and when you do, hang onto your hats and prayer coverings!"
--Tom Beech "Reviews ""She's a smart, sweetly blushing, baseball-loving, convertible-driving, taking-on-the-bishop kind of girl who delights and inspires."
--Dora Dueck "Reviews ""Blush is a collection of memories by a woman born with a knack for flirting with boundaries."
--Suzanne Woods Fisher "Reviews ""Sobre este título" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
