“LaCour’s … series is cozy and classic-feeling … Ella’s curiosity and gregariousness are infectious, and she’ll easily sweep readers into her charming world.” ―Booklist
Ella and her neighbors on Poppy Hill are back with more mischief and bighearted fun!
The apartment house on Poppy Hill is inhabited by residents who are as much family as they are neighbors. Luckily, nine-year-old Ella is there to help everyone through all their ups and downs. She knows about the glitchy lights, the nighttime noises, the secret spaces, and each neighbor’s hopes and dreams. She even knows the mysterious Robinsons, who live on the top floor and are now her silent partners in making sure that the apartment house is the perfect place to live.
BEST CHILDREN’S BOOK: The Apartment House on Poppy Hill, the first book in the series, won the Lambda Literary Award for Best Children’s Book of 2024. It also got lots of love from readers and reviewers who celebrated its charm, diversity, and heartwarming storyline! It was named an Amazon Best Book of the Month and one of the Top 20 Children’s Books (Ages 6-8).
AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR: Nina LaCour is a highly acclaimed author of picture books, young adult novels, and adult literary fiction. This is her first chapter book series for younger readers. The charming characters and their stories were conjured by LaCour and her young daughter during the long walks they took through San Francisco during the early days of Covid-19 and inspired by the people they encountered along the way.
HILARIOUSLY UNIVERSAL: Ella is a strong protagonist that readers of all ages and genders will love. She is bighearted, curious, and just a tad mischievous.
