Charlie's little sister Lola is a very picky eater. She won't eat carrots, peas, potatoes, fish sticks, and she definitely won't eat tomatoes. That is, until Charlie feeds her dinner one night and changes the names of everything so Lola wants to try it. A cute picky eater story.

Funny read - 5*
Read this to the girl I babysat over and over again. I think I knew this by heart.

I was glad to find this after struggling to find a good read-aloud for Kindergartners leading up to Earth Day. Charlie and Lola are adorable and lovable characters, and in this story kids are introduced to recycling and celebrate as Lola and her classmates achieve an important goal. The illustration style combines drawings and collage in a way that allows opportunities to look for interesting details with young readers.

Charlie gaslight, gatekeep, girlbosses his sister into eating her vegetables. Imagination is power!
Overall, this is not a bad start to the series. Anyone who has ever lived with a child who turns their nose up at the mere thought of trying new things can relate to Charlie's situation here. The art style is reminiscent of paper dolls occasionally interacting with with photorealistic objects in their hand drawn world, which will likely be eye-catching to the kids this series is for.

This was cute. The babe seemed to like the bright colors. For some reason I thought there'd be more pictures of food.
