Book Review: Life with Lily

 

ABOUT THE BOOK
For a child, every day is a thing of wonder. And for six-year-old Lily Liapp, every day is a new opportunity for blessings, laughter, family, and a touch of mischief. As she explores her world, goes to school, spends time with her family, and gets into a bit of trouble with her friends, Lily learns what it means to be Amish and what it means to grow up. From getting a new teacher to welcoming a new sibling, Lily's life is always full of adventure.

The first of four charming novels that chronicle the gentle way of the Amish through the eyes of a young girl, Life with 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 the real-life stories of growing up Amish from Mary Ann Kinsinger and the bestselling writing of Amish fiction and nonfiction author Suzanne Woods Fisher. With charming illustrations throughout, this series is sure to capture the hearts of readers young and old.

MY THOUGHTS
This is a very sweet read, perfect for your young daughter to read, or for you to snuggle up and read right along with her.  If you enjoyed the Little House on the Prairie series, you'll be sure to fall in love with Lily!  She is adventurous, full of surprises and lots of love.  After reading Life with Lily you'll be sure to want to continue with the series as the following books are published.
