Summary:

Lydia, an Amish girl living with her family on their farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, tries hard to finish her hooked rug so she can take her first trip to the market with Pop, but so many other things divert her attention: a visit to the cider mill, a visit to a new baby, and a chase after a runaway pig.
