About this ebook
Grow with the spirited, sometimes awkward, but always charming Lily as she learns what real beauty is.
In this fun, entertaining story, readers meet awkward sixth grader Lily Robbins who, after receiving a compliment about her looks from a woman in the modeling business, becomes obsessed with her appearance and with becoming a model. As she sets her sights on winning the model search fashion show, she exchanges her rock and feather collection for lip gloss, fashion magazines, and a private “club” with her closest friends. But when the unthinkable happens the night before the fashion show, Lily learns a valuable lesson about real beauty.
This best-selling, biblically based fiction series for girls—with a fresh new look and updated content—addresses social issues and coming-of-age topics, all with the spunk and humor of Lily Robbins as she fumbles her way through unfamiliar territory. As readers come to love Lily and her stories, they’ll also benefit from the companion nonfiction books that will help them through their own growing pains.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Here's Lilly by Nancy Rue is a fun and entertaining book for young girls. As the main character, Lillylearns difficult life lessons, she also sees that turning to God for guidance and confidence will help her regain her focus on who's opinion is really the most important. As with most pre-teen girls, Lilly struggles with self-confidence, beauty, social issues, peer pressure and the struggle to balance friends, family and faith. In this book, and the other books in the Lilly Series, she learns that God's opinion is best. And although difficult at time, Lilly learns that listening the His instruction, and that of her parents, is what matters most.I found throughout this book, that there are a lot of great lessons for young girls to learn in Here's Lilly by Nancy Rue. I think this book is a great addition to any young girl's library and will help them see themselves through God's eyes. It is definitely a book I plan to have my own daughters read.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5It would serve its purpose in raising self-esteem, but it was really, really predictable and the characters were so annoying.
