The Longest Winter in NYC: Lilly is on a Mission - What Will She Discover Along the Way?

A winter move to New York City was never part of eleven-year-old Lilly’s dreams. Uprooted from her small-town life, her friends, and even her beloved grandmother, Lilly must face the big city’s towering buildings, busy streets, and chilly new world—all while turning twelve in a place that feels nothing like home.

But everything changes the day she meets Robyn, a frail homeless woman in Central Park. For the first time, Lilly sees the harsh reality of life on the streets and begins to understand how fragile—and unfair—life can be. Determined to help, Lilly sparks a movement at her new school with the support of her kind teacher and new friends. Together, they organize food drives and aid for those most in need—proving that even the youngest voices can inspire change.

Amid snow-filled days, big-city challenges, and bittersweet discoveries, Lilly learns that compassion is stronger than fear and that the smallest acts of kindness can warm even the coldest winter. This heartwarming coming-of-age story reminds readers that true courage often begins with empathy.

Perfect for readers ages 9–12, The Longest Winter in NYC is a moving tale about friendship, resilience, and finding hope in unexpected places. Whether you’re a young reader discovering the power of helping others or a parent seeking meaningful stories to share, this book will inspire you to believe in the difference one person can make.
