In Lola’s fourth adventure, she can’t wait to become a princess! She already has a crown, a royal stick and gold jewellery – all that’s missing is a beautiful pink dress …

Everyone knows that princesses get to make the rules – and Lola is certain she’ll be the best princess ever! But what happens when her sister, Emma, refuses to lend Lola her best pink dress?

Emma says Lola is too messy to be a princess – so Lola must prove that she’s actually very tidy. She just needs a little help from her pet unicorn, her brother Max and her fairy godmother ...

This laugh-out-loud early-reader series is perfect for fans of Princess in Black and Dory Fantasmagory! With decodable text, accessible design, and gorgeous full-colour art on every page, A Little Bit Lola is fun for the whole family and sure to spark a love of reading.

About the Author

Kiah Thomas was the littlest person in her house growing up, and telling stories was one of her favourite things to do. She now lives in Melbourne with her husband, three children and at least twelve soft-toy penguins, and she is not the littlest in her house. She does still love telling stories though, and is relieved that imagination doesn’t care how big or how small you are. She is the author of ten books for kids, including middle-grade adventure series The Callers, and dreams of one day having more books than penguins.
 
Bec Kitson is an illustrator based in Wodonga, Victoria – a place she moved to in large part for the autumn trees. She loves making art that delights all ages, which she shares online under @scribblegum_illustration. She loves to draw witches, forests, foxes, cats and koalas, but she loves to draw dragons most of all. Bec can’t pick a favourite colour, and says it changes depending on the day: today it is sunshine yellow. She shares a home with her husband and two daughters, who are named after water and fire.
