Great eye catching illustrations! I enjoyed reading it to my 2 year old. The science is accurate and having a book that is good for kids as well as factual is always appreciated.

A sweet, simple book with nice illustrations about bees that would be a perfect introduction for young kids around 2-3.

This short colourful book introduces little readers to the appearance, food habits and lifecycle of a ladybird. The text is simple and accessible to very young children, but the real strength of the book is the artwork. It is sweet, child friendly and creates a warm positive feeling with its bright bold colours and smiley creatures.
It would make a great addition to a family or pre-school library.

A cute and simple illustration of the little red bugs we all love. A great book to read with your toddler while they look and point at the pictures. The artwork is cute and colourful and all the little creatures are fun to look at.

This simple, sweet board book is a perfect introduction to the ladybug for toddlers and pre-schoolers. The illustrations are large, vibrant and informative. It highlights the ladybug's life cycle, its importance in the garden as it dines on aphids, how it camouflages itself in time of danger, and where it lays its eggs.

It is a wonderful way to get wee ones interested in nature and aware of the marvels around them. It is an interactive book with a lift-the-flap addition that kids will surely love. Every page brings a new opportunity for questions and conversations as the book is shared together.

I am a huge fan of getting kids outdoors and teaching them to become nature detectives. I highly recommend this book and the whole "Tales From Nature" series.

Tales From Nature: Ladybug by Magali Attiogbé is a cute first look at ladybugs for toddlers. The description states that it is a lid -the-flap book because I received a digital copy to review, I was unable to see what is under the flap. However, experience has shown me that young children love finding these types of hidden pictures.

The text is simple but gives a first look at ladybugs. The book covers their life cycle, which was interesting. Also tells how they help in the garden. Not a lot of details on any one aspect of their lives. Perfectly aimed at a young thinker to begin to understand the world around them. The illustrations are cute but no actual photos of ladybugs at the end. At least not in the digital copy.

I read several books along with this one to a four-year-old and a two-year old. Both said that this was their favorite of the day. The author chose a favorite to share with the young in this book.

A lovely little book, my 3 year old enjoyed it however I think it is aimed at younger children than 3.. I would like to see if there is a whole series which would be a great gift.

This is the life cycle of a lady bug. We get to find out about their favorite food, aphids, and how they lay their eggs. Very simply told, and very short and sweet.

A good introduction to the lifecycle of insets. The pictures are bright and cute.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

Another beautiful addition to the Tales From Nature series. This addition looks and the life cycle of the ladybug along with how she helps keep plants safe from other insects.

An exceedingly short book, concerning the life cycle of a ladybird – even if it uses the American bastardisation of the name. It's really abrupt, with only a few words per spread, which might be to its detriment, in that it concentrates on just eating and procreation – nothing about the animals' ideal environment etc gets a look in. But I am all for books that tell me something I didn't know, and this, with its illustration of ladyBIRD larvae shows they're also orangey-red and spotted, which I would never have known. It's not the most salient lesson I've ever read in a book, but this junior nature title can't really be sniffed at.

Tales from Nature: Ladybird or Ladybug for my NA friends.
Another vivid and engaging story gets us outside with our young folk enjoying the countryside and our gardens. Now we're looking at 12 o'clock high as out of the sun dives a red and black spotted winged creature aiming for aphid held territory.
Simple introduction into the lifecycle of this delightful creature; the gardener's friend!
Good interaction and within and on every page lots to chat about with your toddler chum, from counting the spots to guessing the best leaf to lay one's eggs.
Loved the fact that the aphids looked liked "space invaders" - sort of got carried away with them I think. Still keep these tales coming, Nature is big enough and there is a wide, wild out there to go.

Another great, colorful storybook by this author. This one provides a simple, childlike view into the life and growth of a ladybug. Loved the illustrations.

This is a simple, yet wonderful preschool story about ladybugs. It’s comes out just in time for spring and gardening themes for preschool programs. I would love to read this title to my preschoolers especially when we find a ladybug on the playground! The artwork is very bright and colorful, I think every preschooler would have one with this story!
Thank you to Quarto Publishing and NetGalley for this copy.

Lovely little book with bright cheerful illustrations that draw the young reader in. Covers the life of a ladybug (or ladybird to those British ) and is a great introduction to the natural world


Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Ladybug is a charming little book for small children. The colorful pictures have a lovely retro touch, depicting the life and work of ladybugs with two or three sentences per spread. The language used is child friendly and easily understood. Although it is a book for younger children, first readers might enjoy it too. A great book to teach children about nature!

This is an absolutely charming book all about the ladybug.

It covers their food and their life cycle in easy to understand language and beautiful, simple illustrations.

Children will love the pictures and will learn a little about everyone’s favourite bug.
