Child introduced Charlie and Lola in 2000 with ''I Will Not Ever Never Eat A Tomato'' and won the annual Kate Greenaway Medal from the Library Association for the year's most "distinguished illustration in a book for children". For the 50th anniversary of the Medal (1955–2005), a panel named it one of the top ten winning works, which comprised the shortlist for a public vote for the nation's favourite. It finished third in the public vote from that shortlist. Provided by Wikipedia
