Lessons from a Six year old


Life with Lily

Life with Lily 
Suzanne Woods Fisher and Mary Ann Kinsinger's 

If you loved Little House on the Prairie, you will fall in love with the Adventures of Lily Lapp!  Life with Lily is the first book in this series and I can hardly sit still in anticipation of more books in this series.

This is a book filled with the delight of a child's imagination and the mischief that inevitably follows.  If you have children you will want to read this book aloud to your family.  It is one of the best sources of entertainment we have had.  Although you should be prepared to stop often to answer all kinds of questions.  Not only is this a source of entertainment, but it is oozing with lessons and learning opportunities - a parenting handbook in disguise that your kids will never recognize!  We can learn so much from the Amish, and here is a way to step right into it through the life of a six year old.

About the Book: 

Book 1 in the ‘Adventures of Lily Lapp’ series.

Lily is six in this story, just starting first grade in a one-room schoolhouse in upstate New York. Her parents are busy building a farm, and soon animals join the family—Jenny the cow and Chubby the miniature horse. A baby brother arrives, too, which Lily has mixed feelings about. (She wanted a sister!) Aside from a mischievous friend like Mandy Mast, Lily is happy at school and even happier at home. 


Trouble is brewing at the schoolhouse and change is on the horizon for Lily and her family.
