Private Lily (Hardcover, Turtleback School & Library ed.)

Lily Hill may only be six-years-old, but she's decided that she's old enough to need some Privacy. Her big brother Case has his own room, but she has to share with her mother. No fair! The best solution would be for her mother to rent a larger apartment, but, as her mother explains, they just can't afford one right now. Lily isn't going to get discouraged, though; she's got a few brilliant ideas to try out.

The bathtub seems just right for a bed -- until she wakes up to soggy feet and a horrible backache. Underneath the kitchen table makes a great fortress -- until a spider runs across her face. And her mother's closet is just like a little room -- until she experiences closetphobia! Finally, her big brother Case comes to the rescue with an inventive solution -- a folding screen that they all repair together, making a private space for Lily in her mother's room.
