Lola Levine Is Not Mean!

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Angela Dominguez. Lola Levine is a strong, independent, soccer-loving second grader. One day during recess she plays soccer a little too aggressively and hurts a classmate. She makes amends by writing entertaining, and heartfelt, notes. Lola, whose dad is Jewish American and mom is Catholic and from Peru, defies stereotypes and marches to her own drum. Spanish phrases and expressive black-and-white illustrations are sprinkled throughout.
