When Lola Visits

by
Michelle Sterling

February 21, 2022 Carmi D says:
Need an escape from the cold winter? Look forward to summer with bright illustrations and sensory imagery that celebrates family, food and tradition.
For one young girl, summer is the season of no school, of days spent at the pool and of picking golden limes off the trees. But summer doesn't start until her lola-- her grandmother from the Philippines-- comes for her annual visit.

Carmi D

I work in adult services, and I'm mostly drawn to books with unforgettable characters or a plot twist I didn't see coming. I love anything with a great story-- books, movies, TV shows. I also love flipping through cookbooks, although I'll admit, I'm more interested in eating than cooking. Besides reading, I enjoy listening to music, practicing yoga and lying beachside.
