About Pepito Has a Doll
Releasing Jan. 20th, Pepito Has a Doll is centered on the experience of a shy young boy who lives with his grandmother. Pepito has only one friend, his doll Lola, until Miguel appears and they begin a joyful adventure together. Bilingual in English and Spanish, this story is an opportunity for families to discuss traditional gender roles and same-gender attraction. As more and more of the children’s book industry is incorporating LGBT characters, rarely do they feature families of color.
Pepito loves his doll Lola. She’s his only friend. He takes her to school in secret because his schoolmates will make fun of him. He’s shy. The other kids at school don’t play with him. Every night he prays to find a friend at school. One day a new student arrives at Pepito’s school, Miguel. Find out if Pepito and Migues become friends in this charming story of a boy and his doll.
