Lola Levine is excited to study all things paleontology in this funny, kid-favorite chapter book series.

“If you’ve never had a best friend, Lola Levine will undoubtedly become your first. Her appeal is boundless.” ―Rita Williams-Garcia, Coretta Scott King Author Award winner for One Crazy Summer

It’s Dinosaur Week at school and there’s a lot for Lola to learn! With facts to gather and a dinosaur drawing to prepare, Lola sees how science and art can go together like peanut butter and jelly.

The best part is the field trip to the Museum of Natural History at the end of the week. Lola’s little brother Ben is over the moon excited about visiting the museum but gets a little fidgety when he drinks too much water from the awesome T. rex water fountain. When Lola and Ben get lost in the museum, will they find their way through the dino wilderness and back to class?

In the seventh book in this series, young readers will be inspired by Lola’s big heart and creative spirit as she learns to navigate the second grade in true Lola style!

Perfect for!

★ Anyone who’s ever gotten lost before!

*"Brown does it again with this seventh entry in the “Lola Levine” series with kid-friendly wordplay, dinosaurs, and sibling antics.... For fans of Judy Moody and Stink, this has fantastic crossover and great cover appeal. A must-purchase.”
School Library Journal, starred review
"Lola’s Peruvian American heritage remains a welcome instance of racial diversity in the early-chapter-book space. Her friendships and friction with classmates feel true to life, but it’s Lola’s enthusiasm and sweet family dynamics that will keep readers coming back to her world."
Booklist

Rita Williams-Garcia, Coretta Scott King Author Award winner for One Crazy Summer

Meg Medina, Pura Belpré winner for Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass
* "Celebrate a truly accepting multicultural character."
Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"Lola Levine is a joy, and even though she stops goals at soccer games, she could never stop readers from smiling as they eagerly wait for her next adventure."
