Charlie & Lola Book Review & Prize Pack Giveaway


Charlie and his friend Marv have invented an invisibility potion, which they would prefer to use without Charlie’s little sister, Lola, bothering and interrupting. But when Lola enlists a bit of help it turns out that the strange and tricky creatures have met their match in one very resourceful, inventive little sister. The book is beautifully illustrated with bright colors and large easy to ready print. The story will teach sibling the importance of sticking together. If your kids love the BBC television show, they are definitely going to want to add this book to their collection.



PLUS – From BBC Video, don’t miss Charlie & Lola: The Absolutely Completely Complete Seasons One and Two on DVD.
Now together in one super amazingly terrific box set, the absolutely completely completest collection of the Charlie and Lola show ever. More info available here.



AND MORE! Check out the Kids Preferred Charlie & Lola Play Set (view here) The Talking Poseable Charlie & Lola Play Set is packaged in a reusable playscene and includes Charlie, standing 12 inches tall, and Lola, measuring 9.5 inches. Kids can bend the arms and legs into any pose for hours of fun. Each character speaks their signature opening line from the book, video and TV episode: "I have this little sister, Lola. She is small and very funny," says Charlie. Responds Lola, "I'm not small. I am BIG!".



One very lucky winner is going to receive the same amazing prize pack that I received to review. It includes a book, a set of talking Charlie and Lola dolls, and the full set of DVDs!

There are so many great children's books on Candlewick Press website. I'd like to get so many of them for my 2 granddaughters. I like The World Championship of Staying Awake by Sean Taylor. My 5 yr old granddaughter could compete for that title. :-)
I also like Library Lion by Michelle Knudsen. Thanks for letting me know about Candlewick Press. :-)
