Do you have a girly girl? One that is really into fashion? Between ages 7-11 then this is the book for her. very well written on a subject that is very needed at this age...real beauty with biblical truths and insight.

I got this book because I thought that my daughter would enjoy reading it. It really is for an older child (maybe fifth grade and up) Lily is in Jr. High and the book talks about stuff that affects mostly this age group. Still, it is a good book that I think a jr. higher would enjoy reading. I think that Lily is a character that many girls can identify with and learn from and the situations she faces are common in school and relationships.

If you have a girl that is around fifth grade and up, I bet she'd really enjoy this book.

"Here's Lily" by Nancy Rue is such a fantastic book for young girls. We live in a world where body image starts affecting children at an incredibly young age, through constant bombardment from television, magazines, and other media. "Here's Lily" is a children's book that tackles big issues. Lily is just like so many young girls, struggling to feel comfortable in their own skin, wanting to feel beautiful. This book takes on the issue of God confidence, helping these girls to really understand their own special beauty, through an entertaining and easy to read story. I found this to be an amazing book, and although my daughter is still a little young to understand it, I intend to hold onto it and use it as a tool when she is a little bit older. I absolutely would recommend this book to anyone with a daughter or granddaughter - it's such a great book!

Loved this book. Great for all young girls to read. Here's Lily is outstanding.

I was give the opportunity to review the book Here's Lily by Nacny Rue and I loved it!! I have read a few of the books in this series and all of them have been wonderful.

I would recommend this book and the other books in the series for any girl.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Lily Robbins!! In this funny first story in a series that has sold over one million copies, you'll meet red-headed sixth-grader Lily Robbins. After receiving a compliment about her looks from a high-powered woman in the fashion industry, Lily obsesses over becoming a model, setting her sights on winning the "model search" fashion show. Overnight, she packs away her rock and feather collection in exchange for fashion magazines and lip gloss-but is God in the middle of this change in Lily's life. When the unthinkable happens a couple of nights before the fashion show, Lily learns a valuable lesson about real beauty.

This book will teach girls the your real beauty, the beauty that God has blessed you with, is what is important. Not the beauty made by fashion models and T.V actresses. So be like Lily and just be yourself.

I received this book for review purposes through the Booksneeze book review program. I was not paid for this review and all opinions are my own.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Lily Robbins!

In this funny first story in series that has sold over one million copies, you'll meet red-headed sixth-grader Lily Robbins. After receiving a compliment about her looks from a high-powered woman in the fashion industry, Lily obsesses over becoming a model, setting her sights on winning the "model search" fashion show. Overnight, she packs away her rock and feather collection in exchange for fashion magazines and lip gloss — but is God in the middle of this change in Lily's life? When the unthinkable happens a couple nights before the fashion show, Lily learns a valuable lesson about real beauty.

No doubt about it kids can be cruel and when they find someone whose appearance is different from themselves well they can just have a field day. While that may be fun for them it most certainly is not fun for the person being abused. And when that person is a young girl the abuse can wear on a person's self-confidence. But Lily gets a chance to rebuild her self-confidence by being accepted to modeling school and things begin to change. However, the things being taught all have to do with outer beauty. But God has a way of teaching about inner beauty and Ms. Rue does a superior job of demonstrating both and hiding everything in a very entertaining story. Ms. Rue has created a wonderful character and a role model for young girls to identify with. I am sure they will enjoy this story much more than I did and I enjoyed it a lot. I recommend this book highly and am already looking forward to the next book in this series.
