The House On Stilts is a captivating novel written by R. H. Hazard. The story revolves around a young girl named Lily who lives in a house on stilts in the Louisiana bayou with her grandmother. Lily's parents died in a car accident, and she has been living with her grandmother ever since. The house on stilts is the only home Lily has ever known, and she loves it dearly. However, when a hurricane hits the bayou, Lily's life is turned upside down. Her grandmother is injured, and the house is destroyed. Lily is forced to leave the only home she has ever known and move to the city with her aunt and uncle. The novel follows Lily as she struggles to adjust to her new life in the city. She misses the bayou and her grandmother terribly, and she finds it hard to fit in with her new classmates. However, Lily's life takes a turn for the better when she meets a boy named Max, who shares her love for nature and the outdoors. Together, Lily and Max explore the city and discover new things about themselves and each other. As Lily settles into her new life, she receives news that her grandmother's health is declining. Lily knows she must return to the bayou to be with her grandmother, but she is torn between her love for her grandmother and her newfound life in the city. The House On Stilts is a heartwarming story about love, loss, and the power of family. It is a must-read for anyone who loves a good coming-of-age story.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
