A classic Charlie and Lola picture book about starting school worries, from Children's Laureate Lauren Child.
Charlie's little sister Lola is nearly big enough to go to school. But Lola is not so sure. . .
Lola says, "I am absolutely not BIG. I am still really quite small. I probably do not have time to go to school. I am too extremely busy doing important things at home."
This classic first-day-at-school tale addresses children's fears with warmth, humour, and a lot of fun.

The newest must-have Charlie and Lola original picture book - available soon in paperback!
I have this little sister Lola. She is small and very funny.
If Lola even thinks about Christmas she can't sit still on her chair.
If you BREATHE the word Christmas she hops up and down.
If you say, "Christmas is coming," she just runs round and round.
Lola is wishing every minute for Christmas, but it is a long way away and too far to wait. Can her brother Charlie think of some clever ways to make the time pass more quickly?
Find out in this hugely relatable and funny story about how to wait for something when you really can't wait from bestselling and award-winning Lauren Child.
'The latest book in the series, I Am Wishing Every Minute for Christmas shows that after a quarter of a century, Child's proven formula is still working at its best. [...] This time Lola's central predicament is how to make Christmas "come more soonly" - a sentiment which, as December begins, will resonate with every young reader.' The Telegraph
