Charlie and Lola, Vols. 1 & 2
BBC VIDEO, $15 each

These seven-episode collections from the British animated series—based on Lauren Child's delightful books—feature voice acting from uncannily talented young stars. Charlie, the sweet, patient older brother, tolerates the comedic exploits of his little sister to a degree of near sainthood. Nowhere else are the hilariously erratic speech patterns of children so accurately depicted. The humor is in the realism, and even adults won't be able to resist laughing—Ages 2 to 6
