Lola Levine Runs Out of Steam - by Monica Brown

About the Book

Book Synopsis

Lola is doing TOO much! She loves all her activities, especially soccer and volunteering at the Humane Society. And she's certain that she can handle it all. But how much is too much?

When Lola gets sick and has to miss all of her favorite hobbies, she begins to see that balance and rest are just as important as her other activities. Lola is NOT a good patient, but ultimately learns that our bodies (and minds) sometimes need a break.
