kaitwells's review against another edition
From my review on DiverseKidsBooks.org:
Lulu and this time around we learn about the daily activities of our main character (while her heritage is again sidestepped). Drawing, visiting the park with a friend, and building castles is all in a day’s work for Lulu. While the first Lulu book visually suggests that she’s biracial by introducing us to her parents, this book also prefers to visually cue us in on her differences: her brown, puffy hair, dark eyes, and tan complexion. So while she looks a little different compared to many popular storybook characters, she still does all the same things as everyone else. Thus, this would be a good book to share with your child to introduce them to a diverse character—just make sure you point it out to your young reader.

Rating based on my three year old nieces reaction to the book.
She sat patiently and listened to the whole book without interruption which is a really good thing. Also, when we were done she immediately said she wanted to read it again. This shows just how amazing she thought the book was.
