That's what Shad calls Lily every time he sees her. Not only that, but he insults her, trips her, anything he can come up with to pick on her. Lily is just so tired of it! How much longer can she put up with it? A raving to a friend of her mom reveals what she hopes to be the solution: self image. So in usual Lily fashion she goes all out. She convinces her dad to take her to the library to load up on self-image books and starts following the steps outlined in the books. Is self-image really the solution though? | Extra Notes: | In Lily And The Creep Lily has to learn the difference between having a positive self-image and seeing yourself the way God sees you - and everyone around you. Thinking of yourself highly doesn't erase the bullying or the hurt it causes. Taking the hurt to God and letting Him show how to love your enemies is a lot more effective! The Lily series is a 12 book series about a young 12, then 13 year old girl trying to figure out what makes her unique. Her mom's an expert basketball coach, her dad lives in the land of English literature and has students begging to get into his classes at the university. Her brother Art is amazing at band, he's destined to get a scholarship for his music skills. Her younger brother Joe lives and breathes athletics. Lily can't figure out what her "thing" is. Each book has Lily going all out with a latest interest in an effort to determine who God wants her to be. | Reviewer: | J:-)mi | Recommendation Scale: | 5 |
