Book Overview
Today Lola wants to do everything all on her own, but things aren't as easy as she thought they'd be. In the park, when Charlie and his friend Marv explain to Lola that a seesaw won't "see" or "saw" with only one person on it, Lola reluctantly lets them sit on the other end. When Lola soars into the sky, it launches her into an elaborate high-seas fantasy where she saves Marv and Charlie from ever-soevil pirates. All on her own!

A big hit at my house!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
The attorney I work with introduced me to the world of Charlie & Lola. It's terribly appropriate because my 4 year old granddaughter has a baby sister whose name just happens to be "Lola." Charlie & Lola and Scooby-Doo have replaced Dora and Diego on Grandma's DVR. Maizie was delighted with my first purchase of Charlie & Lola books so I imagine there will be many more to come.

Love the books and the show. I read the books to my daughter with a British accent, so much fun.
For the Small and very Funny...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I don't know if my son loves Charlie and Lola more than I do, we watch the show on Disney together and he can act out every motion and mimic every giggle. For the most part I think he thinks he's Lola, he is small and very funny... so... I bought the books to help sway him into reading more with me. My son is just 3 and has been diagnosed with autism, so his focus is a challenge, But when we sit down with Charlie and Lola, he immediately taregts in, he knows the books before we even open the covers. We love Charlie and Lola, it's artistry is delightful, the stories are relatable to children, in a very identifiable way, and the kids actually seem like kids, and not like adult versions on children. And I think there could be worse things in life for a child to grow up with British manners. So polite. My son learned "please" and "Thank you" from Charlie and Lola. If I could reccommend these books higher I would.
great!

We love the Charlie and Lola series. What a treat for kids and parents! Artsy illustrations and cute, innocent stories. It also inspires our children to make pictures with different mediums. Excellent buy and different than your average children books!
Really shows Lola's imagination
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This sweet bedtime story celebrates imagination and independence. Brother Charlie is admirably patient with little bitty sister Lola as she insists on doing "anything that's everything all on my own." Naturally this results in problems -- with a computer, a coat buttoned wrong and pink milk on the counter instead of in the cup. Another consequence, however, is that the little girl's imagination is allowed to soar. When Lola rides the see-saw by herself she never leaves the ground, which lets her notice "lots of interesting things very close and near." The illustration shows a parade of ants -- literally a parade, with the ants dressed like a Mexican mariachi band. When Lola lets her brother and his friend Marv get on the see-saw and lift her into the air, she becomes Captain Lola, and rescues them from imaginary pirates. Like all the Charlie and Lola stories, the dialogue seems lifted from the mouths of real kids. "I saved you and Marv." Lola tells Charlie, "from the ever so mean pirates!" Another great book about imagination is the classic Where the Wild Things Are.
