Lolo’s Sari-Sari Store

Sophia N. Lee
(Juvenile Picture Books - Ej Lee)


For most of her life, one young girl would spend her summers making connections with the folks who stopped by her grandfather’s sari-sari store in the Philippines. After moving to the U.S., the girl is determined to find new ways to be active in her new community. A sweet story about family and the joys of contributing to our communities. Recommended for ages 6–9.
