A powerful and inspiring imagined story about real-life civil rights activist and labor leader Dolores Huerta that reminds us that even our biggest heroes started out small.

Her grandpa calls her "Lolita Siete Lenguas"--Little Lola, Seven Tongues, all fighting to be heard. Lola tries not to make so much noise, but when she witnesses injustices in her own neighborhood, she knows she can't keep quiet. Can Lola find a way to use her voice for change? Sí, se puede!

Inspired by the real-life civil rights activist and labor leader Dolores Huerta, Lola Out Loud is an inspirational picture book reminding us that sometimes one strong voice is just what is needed.
