Valeria is a  six year old girl, she love cupcakes, and her little brother Astro 

Valeria have a bendy and flexible rig, and magic  in the facial rig , it is designed  to mimic the stop motion animation, Take a look at the pose library to get an idea of how facial rig works,  and when switching between facial shapes use constant interpolation.

a couple of tricks: to add more facial expressions, many shapes can be transformed and thus get extra shapes, for example, by scaling the "mouth" control in normal Y -1 all the smiley shapes become sad, the trick is to perform these climbing transformations also using constant interpolation.

Astro and Valeria look better on Ortogonal cameras

* IK chains for the limbs

As well the rig can be  handle as is, I recommend use  the  X-Pose  Picker  and  bone Selection set add-on  (this last one is include in blender)
