Lola attempts to avoid a Day of the Dead disaster in another adventure celebrating her Guatemalan heritage!
Lola is excited for Halloween, but Mama is sad to be missing the holiday she loved in Guatemala: the Day of the Dead. Then Lola’s family is invited to a Day of the Dead party! But when Lola discovers that a Guatemalan dish called Fiambre is on the menu, she panics. She doesn’t like her foods to touch, and she really doesn’t like beetroot or sardines! With Abuelita’s help, can Lola find the courage to share in the celebration and try something new? Readers will delight in meeting Lola, her family and friends in this charming chapter book from the Hola Lola series, focused on family, heritage and cultural exploration.
Keka Novales is originally from Guatemala and now calls Texas home. She lives with her husband and their three children and two dogs. Keka and her family have lived in several places in the U.S, including South Carolina, Kansas, Florida, and now Texas. Every state has been a unique and beautiful experience. Moving has taught them to be flexible and always enjoy each moment. When Keka is not writing, she is having adventures with her family. Carolina was born in 2000 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She was (and still is) endlessly inspired by books and animation from an early age and started taking drawing classes when she was thirteen. After graduating from Palermo University with a degree in Illustration Design in 2021, she started working on children’s illustration projects such as picture books, magazines and board games. Carolina enjoys creating magical, nature-themed illustrations with cute characters and, along with creating art, she loves swimming and spending time with her dog, Watson!
