We will never, not ever, have a more splendid visitor to the island than the  genius and former children's laureate Lauren Child - though the word 'visitor' might not necessarily be the most accurate in her case. Lauren is of course the creator of Charlie and Lola, Clarice Bean, Ruby Redford - a cast of characters the like of which any writer would give their left nib to have come up with. Nadia and Frank are so engrossed in what she has to say about her relationship with the people in her books that they almost forget (almost) that they manage to win a prize for previous island musings - many thanks to to the Independent Podcast Awards for making their jabberings the best indie books podcast of the year! Toot toot!!

Charlie and Lola: Snow is My Favorite and My Best by Lauren Child

But, excuse me, that is my book by Lauren Child

I Would Like to Actually Keep it by Dave Ingham and Lauren Child

For our Thursday review, film critic Leila Latif and art critic Ben Luke join Samira to discuss the much anticipated release of the Avatar sequel, The Way of Water and the exhibition of the late Polish artist Magdalena Abakanowicz: Every Tangle Of Thread And Rope at Tate Modern in London. The much-loved and much-celebrated illustrator and author Sir Quentin Blake will be 90 on December 16th. He is well known for his collaborations with Roald Dahl, Michael Rosen and many others as well as for his own stories such as Cockatoos and Mrs Armitage on Wheels. Fellow illustrators and writers Lauren Child and Axel Scheffler join Front Row to celebrate the work and influence of this distinctive artist as plans proceed to open The Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration in 2024.

From Clarice Bean to Charlie and Lola. With every character and story Lauren Child has written, she has created worlds that celebrate the experiences of childhood. In this special episode of The Woman Who, Clara Amfo is joined in the studio by Lauren to talk about her approach to writing, where her inspiration comes from, and why art and stories are fundamental to who we are.

I Am Not Sleepy and I Will Not Go to Bed (Charlie and Lola) by Lauren Child

I Am Too Absolutely Small For School by Lauren Child

Lola geralmente é muito ocupada e muito engraçada, mas hoje ela realmente não está se sentindo bem. Charlie faz tudo o que pode para ajudar, trazendo biscoitos para Lola e leite rosa e até um buquê de flores. Mas as flores fazem Lola espirrar e o leite rosa tem gosto de verde. Pior ainda, Charlie prometeu a seu amigo Marv que ele jogaria uma partida de futebol, e agora Charlie tem que sair. Oh não! Como Lola vai melhorar sem seu irmão mais velho por perto? O livro de hoje se chama “I'm really ever so not well”, que eu traduzi como “Eu realmente não estou bem”, escrito e ilustrado por Lauren Child e ainda não publicado no Brasil, então eu traduzi e adaptei especialmente pra esse episódio.

AXS TV hits the concert scene this summer to put music fans to the ultimate test in the all-new trivia series Parking Lot Payday—premiering Tuesday, July 12 at 8p.m. ET/5p.m. PT, and host Zach Selwyn is here on #DukeLovesRasslin to tell us all about it! #ZachSelwhyn's diverse credits include leading roles on acclaimed series such as Around the Horn on #ESPN , Attack Of The Show, and America's Secret Slang, among others—Parking Lot Payday puts a fun and unique spin on the traditional game show experience, as Selwyn and his crew ride into concert parking lots to give attendees the chance to cash-in on their knowledge of their favorite bands. The inaugural season features four 30-minute episodes, putting the spotlight on concertgoers on their way to see heavy metal masterminds Metallica (July 12), rock trailblazers The Rolling Stones (July 19), chart-topping favorites Imagine Dragons (July 26), and rock mainstays Coldplay (Aug. 1). Select fans will have the opportunity to answer up to 10 multiple-choice questions specifically pertaining to the band performing that night. The first question is worth five dollars, and that amount doubles with each question that follows—resulting in a possible grand total of $2,560 for those lucky contestants who manage to correctly answer all 10 questions. To aid them in their quest, fans will have the option to ask for a hint, text a friend, or search for the answer on their phone for 30 seconds if they get stuck. A contestant can choose to walk away at any point with the money they have won, whether it is merely $5, $80 or the entire pot. Once a fan answers a question incorrectly, they are out of the game and lose all of their earned money.Check out this fun interview with Zach and don't forget to check out #ParkingLotPayDay on #AXSTV!

João Pedro começou na vida como filho único, assim como muitas outras crianças começam. Ele tinha um quarto só dele, ele podia enfileirar seus preciosos objetos e ninguém iria movê-los um centímetro sequer. Mas um belo dia, tudo muda. Quando a nova pessoa pequena chega, parece que todo mundo gosta dela um pouco mais do que gostam de João Pedro. E quando a pessoa pequena derruba a construção de João e lambe sua coleção de jujubas, os pais de João dizem que ele não pode ficar bravo porque a pessoa pequena é apenas pequena. João deseja que a pessoa pequena volte pro lugar de onde veio. Então, numa noite, tudo muda... O livro de hoje se chama “The new small person”, ou “A nova pessoa pequena”, escrito e ilustrado por Lauren Child e ainda não publicado no Brasil, por isso eu traduzi e adaptei especialmente pra esse episódio.

Lauren Child chooses The Eighteenth Emergency by Betsy ByarsMore about Lauren's choice: Betsy Byars (1928 – 2020) was a prolific and award winning American children's writer. The Eighteenth Emergency was her 9th out of over 40 books, published in the US in 1973 and a year later in the UK. She started writing to fend off the boredom of being at home with small children and was undeterred by her first book being rejected nine times. The Eighteenth Emergency was inspired by her fear of the tyrants of her own school playground, the Fletcher brothers. In later years she got her pilot's licence and lived with her pilot husband above an aircraft hangar.

Beware of the Storybook Wolves by Lauren Child - Read by Martyn Kenneth

Lola is a fussy eater. A very fussy eater. She won't eat her carrots (until her brother Charlie reveals that they're orange twiglets from Jupiter). She won't eat her mashed potatoes (until Charlie explains that they're cloud fluff from the pointiest peak of Mount Fuji). There are many things Lola won't eat, including — and especially —tomatoes. Or will she? Two endearing siblings star in a witty story about the triumph of imagination over proclivity.

Most of us haven’t been in a sitcom-style, hurl-mashed-potatoes-across-the-room kind of food fight, but I’ll bet most of us have been in fights about food with our kids. There are so many potential conflicts here, from picky eating to table manners. The goal of this two part series is to help make eating with your kids a positive experience—with a lot of great ideas from moms on the front lines. In this first episode, we’ll talk about two potential battles: picky eating and house rules about what types of food you eat. In part two, we’ll talk about battles over when kids eat—especially snacks—and how kids eat—how they act at the table.   Resources Mentioned in this Episode:   Podcasts: Your Picky Eater, What Fresh Hell Podcast   Baby Food, Our Parents Did What?

Author and illustrator Lauren Child sat down with her collaborator, designer David Mackintosh, to discuss the process of making best-selling children’s books – from font snobbery to wrestling over front covers and the merits of staring into space.

"Sometimes we need to spend time doing nothing – just stare into space. We need that fallow time," says Lauren Child, when journalist and author Nicolette Jones poses the question "how do you come up with your ideas?" This, and many more thoughts about creativity, from the 'Charlie and Lola' author and Waterstones Children's Laureate, in this inspiring talk from the RA's Festival of Ideas.

Meet Lauren Child, author of the super successful Charlie and Lola, Clarice Bean, and Ruby Redfort books. Lauren started as an illustrator but has found success as a children’s author. Learn how to become a brutal editor, when to turn to experts, and how to find your own way of storytelling. This podcast is brought to you by the Australian Writers’ Centre.

Michael Berkeley's guest is the best-selling author, illustrator, and Children's Laureate Lauren Child. I Will Not Ever Never Eat a Tomato; I Am Too Absolutely Small for School; I Am Not Sleepy and Will Not Go to Bed - these are just three of Lauren Child's bestselling, funny and touching picture books for young children. Her big-eyed characters such as Charlie and Lola, and Hubert Horatio Bartle Bobton-Trent, capture the way children negotiate the small but significant challenges of family life, school and growing up. And they're illustrated with Lauren's trademark collages of her drawings and paintings, magazine cuttings, fabrics and photographs. But she writes for older children too - novels featuring the feisty Clarice Bean and, most recently, Ruby Redfort, who has to juggle her mundane life at school with being a top international secret agent and expert code-breaker. The winner of numerous awards, including the Kate Greenaway Medal and multiple Smarties Prizes, Lauren Child has been Britain's Children's Laureate since 2017. In conversation with Michael Berkeley, Lauren talks about the struggle she faced in her twenties to find direction in life, the challenge and joy of adopting her daughter from Mongolia, and why she can't work unless she's feeling melancholy. She chooses a Mongolian long song for her daughter; music by Satie that conjures up her own childhood; and music by Puccini and Vivaldi used in films that had a huge impact on the development of her imagination. Producer: Jane Greenwood A Loftus production for BBC Radio 3.

The creator of Charlie & Lola and current Children's Laureate explains how you can give the best gift to your kid: imagination.Steve and Rich pop into Lauren Child's kitchen to discuss the importance of stimulating your little one's creativity, the difficulty of writing children's books in the modern publishing world and what dads can do to set an imaginative example to their offspring.

With John Wilson. Lenny Henry returns to the stage after a succesful run playing Othello. He now stars in the Pulitzer prize-winning play Fences by American playwright August Wilson. Lenny Henry discusses the importance of the play and the challenge of memorising his lines in a role where he's rarely off the stage. The winner of the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal for children's book illustration is announced today. Previous winners include Raymond Briggs, Shirley Hughes, Lauren Child and Quentin Blake. John talks to this year's winner. The foghorn is a disappearing sound from the British coastline - increasingly made redundant by the advances of GPS technology. Now an ambitious project is using GPS technology in the service of a Foghorn Requiem. Composed by Orlando Gough, the requiem features three brass bands, a flotilla of vessels positioned offshore, and the Souter Lighthouse Foghorn itself. Composer Orlando Gough and artist Lise Autogena discuss a one-off musical performance that aims to fuse the sounds from land and sea. In tonight's Cultural Exchange, Joan Bakewell discusses her choice - Luchino Visconti's sumptuous 1963 film adaptation of di Lampedusa's novel The Leopard.

Open Book is devoted to the joys of children's literature.

They discuss how literature remains vivid in this new digital world, the difficulties of buying books for different age groups, how The Hobbit remains a favourite and why children love to be scared by literature.
