Author/illustrator team Anna McQuinn and Rosalind Beardshaw return in this, their second charming picture-book about a little girl named Lola (Lulu in the original British editions), and her love of books and stories. In Lola at the Library, our toddler heroine accompanied her mother on a weekly
Children who love story-hour, and like to play make-believe, will recognize themselves in Lola, and enjoy her many flights of fancy. The father-daughter bond is beautifully evoked here, just as the mother-daughter bond was in the first book. The accompanying acrylic illustrations are colorful and cute, perfectly suited to the simple narrative. All in all, a worthy sequel, and one that has left me anticipating Lola's next adventure! The question is, when will Lulu/Lola Reads to Zaki be coming out, here in the US...?

Here, in Lola Loves Stories, she accompanies her father to the library on Saturday (lucky little girl, to get two library visits per week!), and imagines herself into every story read to her, becoming everything from a fairy princess to a farmer.Children who love story-hour, and like to play make-believe, will recognize themselves in Lola, and enjoy her many flights of fancy.

Lola loves stories is a great book for families to read with their children. It is a book about a girl who loves to read stories where ever she go, and once she gets home she always wants her dad to read to her. This helps the early reader explore enjoyment in reading and see how fun it can be at

Lola and her dad love to read together. They go to the library together and read books. One day they read a story about a girl who loves to read stories whereever she goes. This book is great because it encourages children to read

Translation of "Lola Loves Stories." I love this series about an adorable girl named Lola (or Lulu, as she was originally called in the UK). The books seem to work really well across cultures and even languages. In this one, Lola reads a story every night with her daddy, and then acts it out the

next day. The text is simple, and the pictures tell a lot of the story. I love that one of the scenes is a call-back to "Lola at the Library," which is another one of my favorties in the series. Show Less

My kid liked the first Lola book a lot so no surprise that this one is a hit. A lot of trips are taken to Paris and Lagos around our house now. I just wish Lola's mommy was the one helping her build and the language around it was slightly less disempowering. But that's literally just one page.
