Get ready to dive

I read Lily Bowers and the Uninvited Guest without even knowing the heroine Lily had special powers, the power to speak with animals. Believe it or not, I was so amazed by that, it made me lose myself deeply into the story, although I’m not so keen on stories with magic… I took my time to read this book, as if I didn’t want to finish it. All these beautiful souls, you don’t really want to leave them, you want to live with them! I have to beg the author now, to make it into movie, it would be awesome! Perfect book for children aged 11-15.

I just finished Lily Bowers and the Uninvited Guest. I am 76 (and still a child at heart) and found this to be the most delightful book. I am so like Lily. I love nature more than people, and the forest is my most favorite place to be. I even miss stepping on bugs just like Lily.

I wish I had had this book when my daughter was growing up. It would have been a favorite right along with Charlotte’s Web. I greatly appreciate people like you who are helping us look out for the welfare of the planet, animals and Mother Nature. And, yes, I do believe in fairies.

We need books like Lily Bowers, for people like us, who already care, to remind us to do something, and to show that you are not too young or too old to do something, and to show one thing that some people can do.

We need more books by this wonderful author to show us more things that we can do. Books that will help us learn how to persuade people who don’t care about stopping cruelty to animals yet.

Maybe we can all learn more about how to be persuasive, because being right is not always enough if we cannot explain well enough to other people?

Then hopefully we will end testing on animals of products designed for humans.

Read the book because it is a good story. The book will probably convince you that countries should stop testing on animals for products that will be used on humans. It will persuade some of you that you will want to help. And the animals need our help. They cannot speak for themselves so that most people will understand.

This is a beautiful and inspiring story that I would recommend to everyone, both kids and adults.

It reminds us about true values in life, our place in nature, that we are all connected and just as important no matter the species or size. I love that it sends important message that we Can make a difference, even as children!

The story of Lily Bowers is amazing. It is a must read story.

Lily Bowers alludes to the manner in which we wantonly ignore to save our planet.Nature is unforgiving if we mistreat it. We need to help restore it and stop being selfish and careless. Though there are many good people like Lily Bowers who are making an effort to restore our environment, it will be an uphill task unless we embrace concerted efforts. Time is now, we have no second planet where we can take refuge and stay after plundering our mother nature. Continue with the good work.

I really enjoyed reading Lily Bowers’ adventures with her forest friends and her beautiful quest to educate people about the unnecessary suffering animals face on a daily basis. Lily shows us all that we don’t need to be perfect – we just have to do our best and be brave in our beliefs as that is what inspires others to take up the quest alongside us.

Lily Bowers is the girl I want to be. Her story of understanding and caring about animals resonates with me, as a foster mom for rescue dogs and cats. Her special power that unlocks the communication between people and animals is awesome.

I also love Mother Nature and what she says about the ants Lily accidentally steps on, because sometimes those things accidentally happen. I want to live in Lily’s world, where any harm to people or animals is accidental and not on purpose or because of some antiquated notion of superiority. I feel that I am equal to the five kittens I am currently fostering and the doves in my crepe myrtle trees.

This is the first book I have ever read where I felt understood about that. Thank you, Jess, for writing this love letter to animals.

I’m so proud of Jess! Her book was one of my first projects and it’s finally out in the world spreading its Magic into thousands of lives!

Even though Lily’s story is written for children and teenagers, Jess Lohmann did a fantastic job at weaving in really interesting facts and information. I for one LOVED this book, and cried from Joy when I got to the end!

Jessica couldn’t have chosen a better day than the World Day for Laboratory Animals to launch it! If you haven’t downloaded your free digital copy yet, go get it right now!

I enjoyed reading the Lily Bowers mobi book – it was nice well written and very pleasant to read. It was nice she was conscious about animal rights and testing. Keep up the good work.
