Little Lola, a feisty little polar bear, gets a perfect Christmas gift – a superhero costume. Her dad gets one too and off they go looking for adventure.

After several hilarious incidents including an attempt to rescue penguins from a block of ice, Lola is finally contented and ready to call it a day.

I loved the cheery illustrations in full-page splendor. Definitely, a keeper. 

Excerpt

They shot off the cliff with a WHOOSH, and flew straight towards the penguins.

“Super Lola to the rescue!” she yelled.

CRASH!

Daddy and Lola landed on the ice and eight grumpy penguins sploshed into the water!

“Oops! Sorry!” said Daddy.
