Slightly Invisible (Charlie and Lola)

Adults will recognize a spot-on portrayal of children’s imagination games, while kids will recognize the underwater, outer-space and mountainous territories that their homes become every day through play.

I always wanted a brother, although I doubt he would have been as nice as Charlie. I made him seven because it is one of my favorite ages. I never think of Lola as precocious and certainly not brat-ish - she is one of those children who is just very curious and has quite a strong sense of self. Lots of four-year-olds are like her. There is a retro feel to the whole Charlie and Lola world; the subject is simple and always about the tiny things in life. Tiny things, which can seem very big when you are four or seven. - Lauren Child
