Lola at the Library (Lola Reads)

After the birth certificate and social security card, the next document of importance for me is a library card. Both my sons received theirs by the age of 2 and prayerfully, I will be able to get one for my granddaughter by the time she turns 2.My granddaughter and I enjoyed the book and lovely pictures. The story was not just about the library but more about parents spending quality time with their children and just how much that means to our children.

This book introduces children to the concept of going to the library in a time where that seems ancient. (We have a library inside the mall here in Washington. I find that really amazing.) Miss Lola our main character takes us on her journey and what she does at the library. She's a little bookworm and her Mommy reads to her at night. The words are easy to follow for little readers and the story is easy to follow. I enjoyed reading this with my little ones and it's definitely a favorite. They enjoyed it and smiled but I was not about to read it again. (Lol, every parents silent prayer. Read it once for the night and sneak out.) I recommend this book to parents of little ones wanting to encourage your children to read and just in general. It's a great children's story.

Bought it for my niece bc Lola is black lol my neice read it and loved it 🥰

My daughter loved this book when she was younger. I think it's a great addition to any young girls library. We love Lola!

The book is wonderfully engaging. The illustrations at all drawn in a way that you only ever see Lola's view of the world. I would highly recommend this book.

I'm helping my aunt build my baby cousin's book collection, so this is one of their first books. Although she can't read yet, I see the sparkle in her eyes when reading the book to her and showing her the pictures.

Such a cute book. It is amazing how books like this was so rare when I was growing up. Now that I am a grandma, I have such a selection of culturally-appreciative books to choose from for my grandbabies. Just love it and this one is well written and illustrated beautifully. I love the character Lola and her family. Will definitely add more of this series to my grandma collection.

She now pretends she is getting her library card and going to the library. Beautiful book for so many reasons ! Love!

Nice to read books to kids that they can see themselves physically in the story. Good book for black kids.

We love this sweet little book about Lola and her mom going to the library.

this book is so absolutely adoring! Mike 2.5-year-old loves to read it over and over again, and demand his own library card now ! The story as well written, very realistic anti-illustrations are super cute ! I can recommend this book Hailee to every child that has a loft for books and reading

My toddler just loves this book! It helped us establish a library visit ritual too! The text is good and the drawings are very cute!and the protagonist is an afro-american girl: Hooray for that!

Fabulous book for kids
