Rumspringa

Another book that I would have not probably read if my book wasn't reading it. Rumspringa is a time that Amish teenagers go and experience the world and see if they would still like to be baptized in the Amish faith. I learned a lot about the Amish and their faith through this book. The chapter on shunning and why it is done is very interesting. I liked the real life stories and was much less interested in the experts opinions. Why the Amish go through rumspringa is interesting too. I want to see the documentary, The Devil's Playground, which is about some of the Amish highlighted in this book.
