A Big Year for Lily (The Adventures of Lily Lapp Book #3)
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.
