She could be a magnificent performer . . . or a daring inventor . . . or a brilliant botanist . . . there are exciting ideas all around! But Lola is too excited--she wants to try EVERYTHING. How will she ever decide what she is destined to become The curious and creative Lola Dutch is inspired to imagine every way to explore the wonder of her world.
