Last-But-Not-Least Lola Going Green

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Paul Hoppe. In this humorous chapter book, second grader Lola wants to beat ex-best-friend Amanda in the Going Green contest. After the class votes Lola's compost idea the winner and the project begins, Lola realizes that winning isn't the same without her friend. The story includes useful going-green tips, but treacly language (with frequent mention of candy) is distracting. Simple black-and-white pen drawings appear throughout.
