My Life as Lotta

Meet 10-year-old Lotta Petermann, beloved star from a bestselling book series spanning 20 volumes and two hit movies. She’s funny, sometimes fearless, and entirely authentic. Without extraordinary abilities or grand ambitions, she captivates us through her unique worldview. The series follows Lotta’s first year at Günter-Graus School in class 5b. Alongside her best friend Cheyenne and the clever Paul, she tackles typical fifth-grade adventures: earning money for a pet, embarrassing lantern parades, first butterflies in her stomach, and confrontations with the snobby Glam Girls. Across 26 episodes that complement the literary original, we watch Lotta grow. She overcomes prejudices, leaves her comfort zones, and increasingly realizes she’s perfect just as she is. As viewers, we become Lotta’s allies and delight in her creative, often chaotic approaches to life’s challenges. Through her diary entries, we experience the world through her eyes—honest, unfiltered, and irresistibly endearing.
