Many first-time memoirists believe that because the events are true, the structure will take care of itself. This is a fatal error. Life is chaotic; narrative is order.

Lilah Loves Life
by Brian Sullivan introduces Lilah, the child who wakes up and is instantly
enthralled by the blue and clear clouds floating by, excited to be alive. Lilah
looks forward to the day with expectation, thinking about the many things that
can be done — dancing, singing, laughing, and playing. The small girl dreams
about growing up to be a cook, so she could make people happy by cooking and
serving them food. Her adventures take her from home to her mom's flower bed
where she finds a butterfly that she captures and frees because it is ''so
beautiful.''
This is a beautifully written, fun poetry book for children that introduces a
character they will adore. Lilah is a carefree, thoughtful, and eccentric child
who loves to be happy. The author does a wonderful job of capturing the
exuberance and innocence of the child in Lilah. Her adventures are fun, from
playing ballerina to tricking the dog with the ball. Her zest for life will
bring color to the world of children. The illustrations by Laura Watson are
terrific and colorful and the vibrant and cool colors add depth to the reading
experience. Brian Sullivan's Lilah Loves
Life is a great book to introduce Children to poetry. I loved the strong
imagery, the lyrical character of the writing, and the real world the author
creates for readers. Lilah Loves Life
is infused with realism and the young protagonist radiates a light that is contagious.
She challenges readers to think about
how enthusiastic they are about their day and the activities they undertake.
This book is a perfect gift for children ages 3 to 8. This book was read to me by my five-year-old daughter who fell in love with it.
