Lola is a young Spanish girl in awe of her glamorous older sister Clementina, who is good at everything. Lola wants to be good at something too -- something that Clementina can't do. Then she finds her Mom's dancing shoes. Could she learn to dance? Could she surprise her family -- and herself? The text is infused with the rhythms, movements and sounds of the dance and the humanity of Lola's family is beautifully portrayed by Micha Archer s collage-paintings.
