Are You a Ladybug? by Judy Allen, Tudor Humphries

4.0

This book whimsically looks at what your life would be like if you were a ladybug. A very constant theme is to keep eating aphids, especially early on, so that you can grow. It has nice illustrations. Near the end of the story, you're told that if your parents look more like this (drawings of human parents of various skin colors), then you are not a ladybug; the explanation of how your life will be different culminates in the fact that you will never ever have to eat aphids! A final 2-page spread at the end gives additional ladybug facts.

My children in the preschool and early elementary years have enjoyed it, and it's especially good for those who enjoy the silly or ridiculous. After this book, I purchased the snail title in this series, which is also good.
