Lola Plants a Garden

In this Lola Reads picture book, Lola learns how to plant a flower garden in this simple and sweet story about gardening and patience.

After Lola reads a book of garden poems, she wants to plant some flowers. She gets books from the library and chooses her plants. Then Lola and her mommy buy the seeds, make the garden, and mark the rows. Lola finds it hard to wait, but at last the flowers bloom. Now it's time for a party with her friends!

The Lola Reads series celebrates family time and togetherness through reading, special activities, and new adventures.
