Melissa Villaseñor discusses & signs Cat and Lola: School Picture Day

"Vibrant, comedic encouragement to embrace one’s own style." - Kirkus

"Puts a fresh spin on the usual story of picture-day jitters and meets the day with enthusiasm." - Booklist

Meet Cat and Lola, the most mismatched best friends you'll ever meet. Lola is loud, messy and happily herself-- free spirited and full of energy. Cat, a former social media petfluencer, is polished, stylish and into all things cool and fashionable. When school picture day arrives, Cat, who knows a thing or two about looking good for the camera, helps Lola find the perfect outfit. Together, they try all sorts of outfit ideas, with Cat eager to help and Lola ready to experiment--though none of them fit right. As their plans spiral into hilarious chaos, they discover that being yourself is always the best look of all.

Illustrated by Mexican artist Jimena Sánchez Sarquiz, Cat and Lola: School Picture Day blends offbeat humor with genuine heart. This standout early reader graphic novel is perfect for kids who love funny stories and characters who don't always agree, but always care.
