Fannie First

By Catharine Nimen and Deb Ogg

Fannie First is rooted deep in the Amish culture. It tells the story of two young women, Fannie and Havana, who despite their differences learn to accept and love one another as they grow together.The story begins with Fannie's difficult birth. She was born bottom first. It then blossoms into new adventures and new beginnings as she forges her friendship with Havana, a non-Amish girl she meets by chance outside the library. Their shared love of books and reading brings the two together, but it's their willingness to be open to each other's differences that expands their worlds. Havana learns from Fannie what it means to be Amish while Fannie learns from Havana new English skills and experiences. The more they learn from each other, the more they realize, they're not so different after all. As an added bonus, the beautiful black and white illustrations invite your child to bring the story to life using their own creativity to color the images.
