Too Small Tola Gets Tough
Atinuke, Onyinye Iwu
Tola may be small, but she’s very determined!
Too Small Tola lives in a flat in Lagos with her sister, Moji, who is very clever, her brother, Dapo, who is very fast, and Grandmummy, who is very bossy. One day Tola discovers the secret of multiplication and division. She is so happy!
But then there is news of a deadly virus, and news of lockdown too. Moji goes away to live and study with her teacher and Dapo goes off to live and work with his boss. Grandmummy cannot go out to work so Tola does instead.
Tola goes to live with a wealthy couple, the Diamonds. She cleans and washes and scrubs, scrubs, scrubs. She befriends the other workers too. But she soon learns that even the wealthy Dimonds have problems of their own. And when it comes to solving them, Tola proves once again how kind and clever, mighty and resourceful she truly is.
Reviews
I felt sad when Dapo and Moji left to stay with other people to reach their goals because of the pandemic but when she started working for a rich man and she was eating massive chicken i felt jelous because chicking is my favorite.

I liked this book, especially when Tola was helping people. When Tola was crying Moji’s multiplication book it was funny. My favourite character was Mrs diamond. I would recommend this book to others.

In Lagos, TOLA's family had to find ways to survive during the lockdown. Tola is my favourite character because she always works hard. Lots of kids would love Tola just like I did.
