 Hi, my name is Nina Lacour and I am the author of The Apartment House on Poppy Hill illustrated by Sonia Albert. This is a book about a nine-year-old named Ella who lives in this big pink apartment house here in San Francisco. Ella spends her days helping out her neighbors, introducing the new people who just moved into the building, and trying to solve the mystery of the mysterious Robinsons who have lived upstairs on top of her head for her entire life, but who she has never actually seen or even met. This is also the first book in a series and so I'm very excited to follow Ella and all of her neighbors through new adventures and big questions about life. You can get The Apartment House on Poppy Hill through the San Francisco Library or your local independent bookstore. We have so many of them here in San Francisco and I really hope that you enjoy the series.
