On Tuesdays, Lola packs up her books and library card and goes to the library with her mother. At the library, she can talk to a friend, sing songs, listen to a story, and choose “any book she wants” (n.p.). Lola’s day, from her library visit to her bedtime story, is illustrated in bright and colorful acrylic paintings. The choice of a perspective that enables a reader to see Lola and events from a child’s point of view and the choice of text, printed in an easy-to-read font, make this paperback picture book appropriate for a shared reading experience . hc
