Written by Michelle Sterling, Illustrated by Aaron Asis
When Lola Visits is about a young girl whose summer experience is made special when her grandmother Lola visits from the Philippines. The book’s strength is the whimsical style of watercolor illustrations that match descriptive adjectives in sensory-rich text. Every page describes how different foods and summer activities smell, look, and feel, but mostly how they smell. It is a wonderful book for reading to young children.
