The Amish Classics series by Ashley Emma takes famous works of literature and reimagines them in Amish communities. The Amish Gift of the Magi (2023) adapts O. Henry’s well-known short story about sacrifice and love, while Amish Romeo and Juliet (2024) brings Shakespeare’s tale of forbidden love to two rival Amish families.
The series extends Emma’s approach of taking familiar stories, whether fairy tales or Bible stories, and setting them in the Amish world. The classic literature source material gives these books a different foundation from her other Amish romance series.
