Sometimes a new big sister needs her own hideout with no little kids allowed!

The newest adventure in the bestselling Lola Reads series celebrates hideouts as safe spaces for children to play, imagine, and process emotions independently.

Lola loves playing with Leo and her new baby sister, but sometimes she wants a place for big girls only!

When Lola decides to play by herself, she gathers her supplies and gets to work, pinning up a blanket and string lights to make her hiding place. The hideout is not complete without Lola's precious things: Mary and Dinah and her three favorite books. With Daddy's help, she makes a "Big Girls Only" sign at the door and invites her cousin Hani for a visit. After a sleepover in her hiding place, Lola is ready to re-emerge for family time.

Lola's Perfect Hideout is the eleventh title in the much-loved Lola Reads series, as book-loving Lola continues to be curious about the world around her.
Anna McQuinn has worked in children's books for more than twenty-five years as an editor, publisher, and writer. She is the author of more than twenty books for children, including Lola at the Library, Lola Loves Stories, Lola Reads to Leo, The Sleep Sheep (Scholastic), and If You're Happy and You Know It! (Barefoot). Anna leads groups like Leo's at her local library. View titles by Anna McQuinn
Rosalind Beardshaw loved drawing from early childhood and from a young age decided she wanted to become an illustrator. She studied at Manchester Polytechnic where she earned a degree in illustration. Since graduating in 1992, she has illustrated many children's books, including two of her own stories; Grandma's Beach and Grandpa's Surprise (Bloomsbury) inspired by long summer holidays spent with her playful grandparents. Animals have also played a large part in her work. Her lurcher, Basil is proving to be a constant source of inspiration for new characters!

In her spare time, Rosalind works as a volunteer with adults who have learning difficulties. She lives in York, England. View titles by Rosalind Beardshaw
