Poor Charlie is trying to get his irrepressible sister, Lola, off to bed, but for each of Charlie's requests, Lola has an imaginative stalling tactic (three tigers need their bedtime drink, a lion is using her toothbrush, or a whale's in the tub). The childlike tone and humor and the endearing mixed-media illustrations, which seem to vibrate with Lola's energy, will make this book a bedtime favorite.
