Charlie
and Lola
Ìý
Losing a tooth, getting a haircut, taking medicine, not being able
to find a favourite book in the library and having to eat your least
favourite foods are just some of the daily trials of life of a pre-school
child, and all feature in the enchanting world of Charlie and Lola.
Ìý
Based on the award-winning books by Lauren Childs, Charlie and Lola
is a charming and imaginative new animation series which will captivate
pre-school children and their parents alike.
Ìý
Charlie is seven - he likes playing football, rockets and racing cars.
Lola is four, but very nearly five. She likes pink milk, giggling and
her best friend Lotta. And she is very independent!
Ìý
As they come up against life's daily problems, their imaginations set
them off on an exuberant journey of fantasy and discovery.
Ìý
And when Lola is unsure or worried, Charlie is there to support her
with humour and logic.
Ìý
Aimed at four to six-year-olds, the series is voiced by children using
evocative child-like language, and explores the special relationship
between siblings.
Ìý
Animated in the UK and reflecting the style of the books which have
won acclaim the world over, Charlie and Lola is characterised by distinctive
and imaginative production techniques, using two-dimensional animation
combined with a 'cut-out' style.
Ìý
A Tiger Aspect production.
