Four simple stories about a young girl who yearns to get a gold star for reading, who covets a fantastic hat in a shop window, who discovers a lost ring and must return it to its rightful owner, and who stops animal abuse in her neighbor's yard. Lolo is sweet and earnest and her troubles range from small to serious, but each one manages to be solved.

Not quite as mischievous as Ramona, similar in feel to Yasmin, and basically a solid read for anyone moving into chapter books.

This is a great collection of stories for new readers. I love the lessons that can be taught alongside them for context. I’m very excited to use these stories in my first grade classroom!

This is a cute episodic chapter book about a young girl in South Africa having small adventures. It's an easy chapter book, good for new chapter book readers. I'd hand it to fans of The Stories Julian Tells and Akissi.

Sweet short story beginning reader. We enjoyed Lolo’s different adventures. Reminded me of Yasmin stories. We’re enjoying more selection of diverse characters in these types of books.
