Love Chalrie and Lola and we LOVE this book! The flaps are plentiful and in interesting locations, you really have fun hunting for them. The story is a cute one too w/ a surprise ending that will make everyone smile! There are clues on each page to reassure your child tha Sizzles really is close by...of course a very happy and super adorable book. This one goes w/ us in the car and to restruants and drs. appointments...keeps her searching and smiling! Quality product, very sturdy like a board book w/ flaps!

As lift-the-flap books go, this one is top notch. It has over 50 flaps and they are all well incorporated into the pictures. For instance, you get to open their refrigerator, cupboards and lunchbox. Any fan of Charlie & Lola will especially love it because it's filled with objects that are well known from the books and tv series, such as Lola's mermaid doll hidden under her tutu. It's quite sturdy, though not for babies. My 2 1/2 year old has no problem lifting the flaps, though I make sure read it with him because he is still at the age where he occasionally likes to rip things for fun. This is probably the most well made flap book I have seen.

okay- before i start, i think i should go ahead and tell you that we are BIG charlie and lola fans. my little girl(4 yrs old) loved this book. she had so much fun looking through all of the flaps. i really enjoy most of the charlie and lola books, but i thought this one was better than the coloring and sticker books, because you can look through it many times. it was a big hit at our house.
