Bookroo's summary
Lola loves her alligator costume and insists on wearing it everywhere, from the supermarket to the park. Her brother Charlie is worried when she plans to wear it for her school presentation. As Lola prepares to showcase her unique style, Charlie wonders if he can prevent her from becoming the talk of the school. Will Lola's bold fashion choice lead to disaster, or will it reveal something unexpected about her? Dive into this playful tale of sibling dynamics and self-expression.
From the publisher
Lola has a favorite alligator costume that she wants to wear absolutely everywhere. Charlie tells her she can’t wear it ALL the time, but Lola argues that she can. Much to Charlie’s embarrassment, Lola wears her alligator costume to the supermarket and the park. She even plans to wear it for her school talk called All about Me! Can Charlie stop Lola from making a fool of herself in front of the whole school?
