School Library Journal Review
PreS-K-Lola loves Tuesdays because that's the day she visits the library with her mother. She packs her backpack with last week's books, remembers her very important library card, and then walks to the library with her mother. She returns her library books, enjoys story time-where she knows all the words and hand movements for "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"-and selects new books to take home. Afterwards, Lola and her mom always stop for a special treat. The best part of the day for Lola is bedtime because her mom tucks her into bed and reads her a story. Rosalind Beardshaw's vividly colored, bold and glossy acrylic illustrations appear on full-page spreads, complementing Anna McQuinn's simple story (Charlesbridge, 2006). Nikki James's enthusiastic narration combined with lively and upbeat background music composed by Peter Calo makes this read-along a delight. Page-turn signals are optional. This charming story is perfect for instilling an early love of libraries in the youngest listeners and is highly recommended as an essential addition to public library collections.-Amy Joslyn, Fairport Public Library, NY (c) Copyright 2011.
