Lola
“I keep a tiny heart in my pocket. It reminds me I am safe and loved wherever I go.”
Lola is the girl the whole Pocket Hug world grew around. On days that feel big, she reaches for the tiny heart in her pocket, takes a breath, and keeps going. She is the reader's stand-in: not fearless, just brave enough for the next step.
