Lola Zola and the Lemonade Crush by Marcy Winograd and Jackie Hirtz

Eleven-year-old Lola Zola panics when her parents announce, “We were laid-off.”

“Fired?”

“Not fired, Lola, laid-off—from the auto plant.”

Either way, it’s bad news.

How will Lola rescue her parents and tail-less cat Bowzer from the jobless blues?
Then the idea of all ideas hits her square in the noggin like a lemon seed spit at one hundred miles per hour.

A riotous, rollicking out-and-out fun-fest full of zany characters with tender hearts, this debut collaboration from Marcy Winograd and Jackie Hirtz makes us laugh—and cry as we explore magical thinking, betrayal and forgiveness. Lola Zola and the Lemonade Crush celebrates the determination of children, particularly girls, to right the wrongs of the world.
