A New Home for Lily Book Review

The Adventures of Lily Lapp
Book Two

SUMMARY:  New town, new house, new friends - and always lots of fun!
     Lily Lapp is moving with her family to Pennsylvania to join a new Amish community.  In this small town, Lily has to get used to a new school, new friends, and Aaron Yoder, the most annoying boy in the world!  But some changes are good, like exploring an attic full of adventure and getting anew baby brother.  Still Lily wonders, why can't God bring her just one sister?

REVIEW:  This book is just as intriguing as the first.  I love Lily's look on life.  She enjoys school and her family but isn't too happy with her new house and some of her classmates.  Lily doesn't let that stop her from finding fun wherever she goes and in whatever she and her brother do.  One of my favorite parts is towards the end when some of their neighbors come over and help the Lapps build a new addition to their house.  When they are finished, Lily gets to move out of her bedroom located in the upstairs hallway and relocate into her new room in the attic. LOVE IT!!  My twelve-year-old daughter read it and loved this book too.  We are both look forward to reading more about Lily's life and the adventures she will find in Pennsylvania.
