Gr 1–3—When cleaning out a shed with her mom, Lola claims an old-fashioned toy box. After she and her stuffed clown hide in it, she realizes they have been transported to a magical place, the Kingdom, where all the toys go when children aren't playing with them. Lola and her now animated toy clown join the famous teddy bear picnic. The picnic is interrupted by bad news that the Plastic Prince intends to conquer the Kingdom. Can Lola prove her worth and return to the Kingdom? This amiable beginning chapter book is the first in a new series about a young girl's magical adventures. The lessons she learns in the Kingdom always seem to relate to her real life. While not original, this offering is engaging and will find an audience, especially with readers who appreciate traditional tales. Like other installments in the series, this one references classic and well-known works of children's literature. VERDICT A charming beginning chapter book. This series starter will work well for young readers looking to jump into longer titles.—Elizabeth Nicolai, Anchorage Public Library, AK
