Grade: kindergarten
Topic: measurement, greater than or less than
This could be used in a lesson with the common core standard for kindergarten with unit 5 for measurement. Student can give a thumbs up or thumbs down to predict if Lola is taller or smaller than items. Also students could then line up in order of tallest to smallest to demonstrate the principle taught.

Once again, a lovely and whimsical Charlie and Lola, with only a couple of non-sequitur-ish bits in the text (since it's been adapted from the tv show); and once or twice I thought the illustrations could have been punched up a bit to fit more closely the wonderfully colourful world that the kids inhabit.
Love the childlike drawings that look like cutouts. Will always be better when read with Lola's (and Charlie's) accent!
We like Charlie and Lola, and this is true Lola, and so little sibling!
Lola wants to be bigger than Charlie. Will she be?
Can Lola make herself bigger??
This book is cute for incorporating into math. It would be great for a first or second grade classroom when they are learning about measurement. The little girl, Lola is wanting to be big like her brother in oder to go on big rides in the park. The teacher can use this to compare heights and sizes to the students in a way that is relatable to their lives.
I would use this book to teach young children about measurement. This book introduces the concept of comparison words such a 'bigger' and 'smaller.'
Easy read book on size differences can be used in kindergarten for math
