Maisy Loves Ladybugs: A Maisy's Planet Book

Who doesn’t love a ladybug? Maisy explores these helpful little critters in the seventh adventure of the Maisy’s Planet series.

Join Maisy as she learns all about ladybugs! This cheerful board book introduces little ones to the colorful insects (look, one has landed on Maisy’s nose!) and lightly traces their life cycle and what they need to survive (did you know they eat plant-invading aphids?). Maisy is happy to help the ladybug population along by watering her garden and building a tiny house out of pine cones and sticks for ladybugs to discover and stay safe in during the wintertime. A final fold-out surprise invites readers to join in a ladybug-counting party outside—how many can you see?The classic Maisy palette keeps every page lively and inviting. A bright and accessible nature pick for early natural science shelves.
