I will preface this review by stating that I am a huge fan of the Lola books. The text in the book has a nice rhythm and is simple without being boring. This makes it a great read-aloud for 3-5 year olds. The illustrations are colorful yet gentle. Toddlers will enjoy seeing where Lola's imagination will take her next. Of course, as a children's librarian, I also appreciate a book that has the library in it.

The over all illustrations were beautiful in this book, but I did not enjoy the format of the story. It followed a pattern of I did this then I did that through out the whole book and it did not feel like the book had a true ending. This book may be good for lower level readers who need practice following similar word patterns. This might be a good book fo 1st grade and lower.

This is such a sweet board book with adorable characters and a very important message. Lola and her daddy go to the library together each Saturday where she gets to chose excellent books for the upcoming week. She also gets to spend quality daughter/daddy time with him.

Each night her daddy reads her one of her books and the next day Lola's imagination kicks into gear and she acts out the previous night's story. She dresses up and pretends to be a: fairy princess, pilot, tiger and builder, just to name a few. The last book is about a monster and the author unveils a pop-up character of Max from "Where the Wild Things Are" and the last line is: "What will Lola be on Friday?" Can you guess?

The acrylic illustrations are beautifully portrayed. I love the fact that visiting a library is a wonderful experience along with the fact that it's her daddy that takes her and reads to her each night. That is very heartwarming as the books enrich their relationship and bind them together more solidly. The book is the second in the series "Lola Reads". I highly recommend it.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me a free copy of the book in exchange for a honest review

I love this sweet story about Lola and her dad! I can see toddlers and preschoolers loving this book and wanting to read it over and over again!

My daughter LOVES the Lola books! They are just at her level to read to me, with only a couple words out of her reading skill set, and she feels more confident reading, which for her has been a struggle. The artwork is lovely and colorful without being overly brash, and the tale is fun and exciting for kids.

A very interested book about books.It shows how books open new horizons and paths for the young minds.
How reading can help elevate the imagination of young ones.
Books should be an essential part of a child's life .

My five year old and I love the other Lola and Leo stories, so we were excited to receive an ARC from Netgalley for this one. This is the sequel to Lola Goes to the Library - she and her father read different books throughout the week, and Lola's life (and play) is enhanced by the literary magical adventures. It's a great way to encourage kids to read more, and my daughter especially liked the vivid illustrations.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC.

This was a great story! It is wonderful for children to learn about the library, how to use the library, and the wonderful stories that every child has access to. I love that it goes through the days of the week because as a Pre-K teacher that is something that we work on everyday. This is a fun way for everyone to practice and remember each day. The story is also a great way for kids to express themselves with creativity. This is a wonderful story to read to all children!
