Reuben is an Amish boy who has five sisters. He wants to drive the buggy and give his animals names ending in “shine.” One day he and his friends Sam and Ben see that his neighbor’s barn is on fire. Several days after the big scare, the neighborhood gathers for a barnraising. Reuben and his friends get to participate in the event. This revised and updated edition features newly designed pages.
Sky Pony Press, with our Good Books, Racehorse and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of books for young readers—picture books for small children, chapter books, books for middle grade readers, and novels for young adults. Our list includes bestsellers for children who love to play Minecraft; stories told with LEGO bricks; books that teach lessons about tolerance, patience, and the environment, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
