Review:
I've never met Charlie and Lola before, so the characters were brand new to my children and me. And they went down a treat! My 3 year old enjoyed finding the 'invisible' Soren Lorensen on each page, and my 1 year old was fascinated with the characters eyes, for some reason.
The story itself is gorgeous - written in a child-like voice, which both my boys enjoyed, but with a lot of description. The written words wend and weave around the page, which makes the story come to life even more.
For existing Charlie and Lola fans, I recommend this as a new addition to your collection. For those that are just meeting them for the first time, this seems to be as good a starting point as any!
If you're interested in purchasing a copy of this book, you can find it here at Fishpond.
My rating: 4 out of 5
