Description

A thoughtful book about insecurities and self-confidence, but especially about the power of friendship. For children with and without freckles ages 5 years and up.

It's picture day at school! All the kids come dressed and ready for it! But not Lola. Lola hides under a big red hat. She is just too self-conscious about her freckles- she has always been! But her classmate Nassim has a clever solution, and in no time, her friends rally behind Lola. Surely enough, the hat comes off and Lola feels confident to celebrate her uniquely, beautiful freckles.

About the Author

Natalia Paruzel-Gibson grew up in the backstage of theatres and art galleries in Poland. Her mom's passion for the arts inspired Natalia to write and create. After emigrating to Canada in 1990, Natalia was recognized by the Turzanski Foundation with a Young Talent Award for writing and reciting poetry. Her photography, silk screens, and art installations were exhibited in Toronto's Nuit Blanche. Stimulated by her own experiences as a mother of two and driven to perceive the world through their eyes, Natalia has been writing stories for children for the last decade. Her debut, Something Lost Something Found, intended to help children move forward with grief, earned multiple awards.

Nynke Boelens is a freelance illustrator living in the north of the Netherlands. She loves adding a touch of magic to stories with her illustrations. Her preferred tools are colored pencils, ink, watercolor, soft pastels, and anything else that produces beautiful colors. When Nynke isn't drawing, she's most likely reading a book, walking in nature, dancing, or enjoying a nice cup of coffee with a friend.
