COMMUNITY REVIEWS

power of imagination submitted by camelsamba on August 13, 2011, 6:13pm Having enjoyed the 'sequel' so much (Ladybug Girl and Bumblebee Boy), we got this one from the library. Lulu establishes her Ladybug Girl alter-ego in this story, which highlights how a good imagination (and a trusty dog - Bingo) can lead to lots of fun and independent adventures. When you read it to your child, point out how Lulu and Bingo have similar poses and facial expressions on most of the pages. They're in this together! We also enjoyed the different costumes she wears on the end pages - which identity would you choose?

disappointed submitted by unknown on July 30, 2013, 2:06pm When I am deciding on which books to buy for our children's ever expanding bookshelf, I try to read all the reviews. Ladybug Girl was given glowing reviews in magazines and online. I don't wish to be negative -- just to add a bit of balance.

The pictures are whimsical and fun, showing a child brimming with imgaination however the storyline fails to bring this to light. It falls short. It is shallow. After my husband read it to the children his first remark was, "Not much to it." Exactly.

The children didn't ask any questions. Even though the story was supposed to be about imagination it didn't spark any in them. There wasn't a depth to the story to linger on in their minds -- or grab their hearts.

On the plus side is the choice of font style, size, boldness, and color for the text. It adds interest for the reader without making it difficult to read.

Fun illustrations and easy to follow submitted by John Staunton on August 26, 2018, 2:15pm Colorful and fanciful settings--not super plot heavy scenarios

Great character submitted by emileeione on August 29, 2020, 9:16pm We love all of the ladybug girl books.
