“What the Ladybug Heard” is such a great picture book for
young readers. “Hefty Hugh and Lanky Len have a cunning plan: they’ll sneak
past all the animals and steal the farmer’s fine prize cow. But they forget all
about the tiniest, quietest creature on the farm—the ladybug. She has a plan of
her own.” (Amazon)
This picture book is a combination of wonderful artistry
that capture shapes, colors and design. The Colors in this book are bold and
bright. It’s perfect for small children to really grab their attention. Also
within this book the author used a lot of rhymes and rhythm.
Discussion:
Why do you think Hefty and Lanky decided to walk around the
barn?
Have you ever been on a farm before?
What were some of your favorite animals to see?
Activity:
Have the children come up with a different ending for the
story. Have them think about the time they visited a farm and everything that
they did on the farm. Guide them through coming up with a different ending of
their own.
