I just finished reading 115 pages out of the book Rough and Rugged Lily by Nancy Rue on March 19, 2011. It's about a girl named Lily who is taking advantage of Christmas and making a super long Christmas list with her brothers Joe and Art. Then Lily's parents decide to take the kids to a cabin and are only allowed to make homemade Christmas presents and they can't take any electronics. But then the family van drives off the roads in a snow storm and the hotels are all filled up. The Robbins' family has to spend a few nights in a high school gym. Now Lily has to decide what is better...Christmas or trusting God.
I liked this book because it showed the true side of people. For example, Joe is supposed to be a sports loving crazy kid, but then he meets two year old Angel and starts fathering her and becoming responsible.
I would recommend this book to girls 9-12.
Count it!
