Author Biography
Niki Daly has won many awards for his work and Not So Fast, Songololo was a groundbreaking picture book, paving the way for post-apartheid South African children's books. Since then he has written and illustrated many more classic picture books and story books, including Jamela's Dress, which was an ALA Notable Children's Book and won numerous other international awards. Niki lives in Kleinmond, Western Cape Province, South Africa, with his wife, the author and illustrator Jude Daly.
Reviews"Ideal for newly independent readers to increase their confidence, each page is illustrated with characterful black-and-white illustrations that bring the stories to life." * Book Trust - Books We Love * "The outstanding feature of this series of books is that very few books for children of this age combine highly readable tone and a feisty young character of colour." * IBBY * "Lolo is thoughtful and caring and she is very good at considering the feelings of others. Each book would be a wonderful pick for a learning setting, encouraging conversations about emotions and friendships. Great reads." * Mama Filz * "Sparkly stories all, with lots of gentle humour that will win Lolo lots of friends among young readers who are sure to enjoy making the acquaintance of this enormously engaging girl." * Red Reading Hub * "Suitable for early readers moving onto chapter books...sweet, simple stories...Punctuated by beautiful black and white drawings by the author." * Children's Books Ireland *
