Lola has promised her mother that she will stay clean and tidy for school picture day. “It will be easy peasy, lemon squeezy!” says Lola. But staying clean and tidy is not so easy, especially when there is finger painting to do and a game of puddles to play. By the time Lola poses for her picture, she is covered in paint and pink milk, and her extremely special photograph for Mom is ruined. But then Charlie has an idea that just might save the day.
Perfect for school picture day or back-to-school, here's a story full of hilarious “Lola moments” that both parents and kids will find familiar and funny. And don't forget to watch these siblings in action on their hit animated series Charlie & Lola on Playhouse Disney.
Big brother Charlie is determined that his sister Lola will remain "tidy and clean" for her very first school photo. "It'll be easy peasy, lemon squeezy," she assures him. But she seems to find situations, like the water tray, or pink milk, or painting, that make it impossible. By the time she poses for her photo, she is smiling, but far from the clean and tidy picture her mother wanted. It takes some clever action by Charlie, our narrator, to save the photo and the day. The characters and props have a flat look, and the backgrounds are primarily solid colors, perhaps because they are derived from TV animation. Charlie and Lola are cartoon-like characters, with large heads and dominant eyes; the humor is direct and believable. Reviewer: Ken Marantz and Sylvia Marantz

Say Cheese! (Charlie and Lola Series)
Lola is about to have her first ever school photo taken. Her Mum tells her that it is a very special photograph and that she has to stay tidy and clean. Her brother Charlie doubts if she will be able to do so but she replies, 'It'll be easy peasy lemon squeezy.'
To prove her point Lola shows Charlie some holiday photographs where she is smiling and looking extremely clean and also saying 'Cheese!'
However, once at school, in her nicest skirt, her best shoes and her favourite hairclips, with her friend Lotta she embarks on various activities that soon have her looking not so clean. They play around the puddles in the playground, mess about in the water tray and then at lunchtime she drinks her pink milk and spills it all over.
After lunch they paint and before long Lola tells Lotta, 'My hands are a bit green and a bit red.' She washes her hands prior to the photo call but fails to wash the paint off her face. When it is their turn Charlie has to tell Lola, 'Stay still, stop wriggling.' She does and says, 'Cheese!'
Viewing their photographs later Charlie says, 'Well at least you're smiling Lola,' to which Lola replies 'But I'm NOT clean and I'm NOT tidy, and I did try.' She is so disappointed because she did want her Mum to be pleased.
Then she has an idea. She digs out some old photographs and, after lots of cutting, snipping and sticking, she comes up with a composite photograph that displays none of the dirt and untidiness that is there originally.
At bedtime Lola goes into their bedroom with the special photograph and Charlie asks what their Mum thought of it. Lola says, 'Mum says I REALLY am a VERY good smiler.'
Another jolly adventure with Charlie and Lola - Cheese!
