A Big Year for Lily (Review)


My Thoughts:
 
As usual Suzanne and Mary Ann deliver the cute story of the life of Lily.  Lily Lapp is a sweet little girl who has the same feelings all little girls have, she don't care for bullies and boys are gross, especially one boy in particular.  With the move of her cousin Hannah, Lily is positive it will be the best school year yet, but it isn't turning out the way she hoped. 
I love Lily, my heart breaks for her when she has disappointments, and I am happy with good things come her way.  I love that she is easily content, but also see how easily she can be led.  A fun story in the life of a sweet little girl.  4 stars!

More about A Big Year for Lily


Book Three in the Adventures of Lily Lapp series. Co-written with Mary Kinsinger.

Lily Lapp's family has settled into their new home in Pennsylvania, but life still holds big changes and big steps for Lily. Good changes, like once again living close to her beloved cousin and best friend, Hannah. Bad changes, like a mean girl who plays tricks on her. And no change at all where Lily would most want one--Aaron Yoder sits near her in school and relentlessly teases her. Surprises are in store for Lily as she learns, with Mama and Papa's help, to manage the ups and downs of growing up Amish.

The third of four charming novels that chronicle the gentle way of the Amish through the eyes of a young girl, A Big Year for Lily gives children ages 8-12 a fascinating glimpse into the life of the Amish---and lots of fun and laughter along the way. It combines Mary Ann Kinsinger's real-life stories of growing up Amish and the bestselling writing of Amish fiction and nonfiction author Suzanne Woods Fisher. With charming line drawings in each book, this series captures the hearts of readers young and old.
