Last-But-Not-Least Lola and the Wild Chicken

Seven year old Lola’s grandmother is staying with her while her parents are on business trips.  In this second book of the series, Lola finds friendship and sharing friends to be quite a challenge.  Lola wants to dominate time with her best friend Amanda and does not want to share her with Jessie or Savannah.  Her jealousy tends to bring out bad behavior and misunderstanding among the girls.  Lola struggles to be a good friend but continually runs into complications.  The friendship issues continue during the class field trip to the Kookamut Farm.  Young children often experience the emotional roller coaster of relationships and may relate to Lola’s problems.  Expressive pen and ink drawings are on almost every page.
