White Lily

'White Lily' is a story of a girl who lives in Scotland with her father. Her name is Zaraline. She spends her time playing with her faithful dog, Oliver, and her friends. One day she meets Mrs. Willington, a kind-hearted woman living in the Brown Castle near their village, Crystallite. She also meets Kate, an arrogant young lady who lives in the White Castle outside Crystallite. Kate hates Zaraline and continues to visit Mrs. Willington in the hope of winning the love and interest of her son, Maximus, who falls in love with Zaraline. Mrs. Willington gives Zaraline a white lily. With care, Zaraline plants it outside the village. She also brings other flowers and plants them around the lily, making a small garden of flowers around it. Zaraline treasures the lily because it reminds her of her deceased mother. One day, Zaraline discovers that her mother is still alive. Zaraline's goal throughout the book is to find her mother someday.
