Lola loves Tuesdays! Tuesdays are wonderful days because every Tuesday Lola and her mommy go to the library. Lola packs her library card and her borrowed library books in her backpack. Then she and Mommy walk together to the library and return their books. Lola loves going to storytime to listen to stories and learn songs. Then she chooses her own books from the children's area and checks them out. After going to the library, Lola and Mommy stop to have a special snack together. Every night when Mommy tucks Lola into bed, she reads a story. Hearing a bedtime story is Lola's favorite way to end the day.

A lovely depiction of three different families, told mainly through illustrations. One family is just a dad and his son. Another family is an adopted girl with two moms. Another family has parents of different ethnicities. The three families are friends, and their children grow up together. The simple, rhyming text talks about how each child touched the lives of their parents. The text doesn't talk at all about how the families are different. They all love their children the same. A very refreshing look at modern families that simply takes diversity for granted.
