What an absolutely charming story.  This book is so full of beauty and wisdom.  I highly recommend everyone read this story.  If each person can incorporate just one small thing from Lila's wisdom, the world will be a much better place!You will fall in love with all of the characters and the charming coastal town.  This is a coming of age story, with the main characters being Lila Blue and her 12 year old grandaughter, Cassandra.  Lila symbolizes all that is good and wise in the world.  Her quirkly, yet loveable lifestyle helps Cassandra to grow into a mature little lady.  The relationships between the people in the town and the scattered family and friends blend in such a realistic way.  The story reads a lot like you are reading Cassandra's journal/thoughts. The way she describes the world and people around her makes you see the world from the eyes of a 12 year old going from disallusioned, to confused, to joyous and peaceful.  I feel in love with this book.You will not be disappointed in this story.  It is a blessing.
