      Synopsis

      Lily and her friend Nick live in a small town in western Kansas. Together they solve many mysteries that they find in Scott City. Lily is very stubborn, and when her mind is made up, no one, not even Nick can convince her otherwise. The duo find many unusual occurrences in their small town. Lily and Nick face many obstacles, just like children in our society. Things aren't always what they seem, and Lily is very aware of this. These detectives will lead the reader through a maze of interesting cases. Who knows, maybe you can even help them solve one?

      July 01, 2008: Book reviewed: ?The Adventures of Lily? Author: Darcy J. Busch Darcy Busch?s ?The Adventures of Lily? begins with the history of the Taemites, but I don?t dare to describe the creatures for fear of giving the secret away and the introduction of twelve-year-old Lily Wright, a dreamer in every sense of the word. Lily is a detective as well as a dreamer, we soon learn, going on adventures of many sorts, usually accompanied by her best friend, Nick. On the particular morning the story begins, Lily was confident that she was going to find a big mystery before the summer and consequent summer break were over. The small town of Scott City was known to have unexplainable events, and Lily just knew that one of these had to be the mystery she was searching for. With Nick safely in tow, and her investigative backpack firmly strapped to her shoulders, she bikes to the abandoned junkyard. There, they find a small, simple wooden box with a picture of a tree on it. But that wooden box turns out to be the first clue in Lily?s biggest mystery yet. The search for explanations involves the library, a map, and multiple cases: helping a classmate come to terms with her changing life, finding the Chosen One of the Taemites, stepping through a mirror, meeting a new neighbor, and being captured. But in the end, I must assure you, both Lily and Nick return to Scott City, unscathed. Their adventures are put on hold for a time, but they do continue, as Mrs. Busch is completing the sequel. All in all, I consider ?The Adventures of Lily? to be very well written with a complex and believable plotline. Mrs. Busch leaves the reader wondering, constantly, as to what will happen next. This is a recommended read for preteens and tweens. I give ?The Adventures of Lily? 4 out of 5 stars. Reviewed by Madison C. Scott, author of Reba
