Synopsis
Lola is a very fussy eater who refuses to eat carrots, peas, potatoes, and especially tomatoes. Her patient brother, Charlie, uses imaginative stories to transform these foods into exciting treats, like 'orange twiglets from Jupiter' and 'cloud fluff from the pointiest peak of Mount Fuji.' Through Charlie's creativity, Lola discovers that trying new foods can be a delightful adventure.
