I first discovered Charlie and Lola books when I read “I am not Sleepy and I Will Not Go to Bed” to the little girl I babysat. The heroine, Lola is about five and an independent little girl who is very sure of herself. The website http://www.charlieandlola.com/ is delightful! The site has a few clips and videos from the new tv series “Charlie and Lola” that is on the Disney Channel. There is a section on the author and illustrator of the books, Lauren Child. According to the site she won “the prestigious Kate Greenaway Medal” for I will not ever NEVER eat a tomato. I assume this is an award given in the UK since that is where Child resides. It even has a section with information about how to recycle and help the planet.
