Publisher Description
This latest hardcover picture book from the New York Times bestselling Ladybug Girl series proves that true friendship is better than any toy
Lulu is excited about her playdate with Finny—and especially excited about Finny’s Rolly-Roo. In fact, Lulu loves the toy so much that she . . . kind of forgets to play with Finny. So when the girls accidentally break the Rolly-Roo, will Lulu realize her mistake? In this compassionate and charming story about the value of a great friend, Lulu and Finny repair the broken toy, and soon forget all about it, blasting off on new imaginative adventures together as Ladybug Girl and Grasshopper Girl.
Great for fans of Fancy Nancy, Olivia, and Knuffle Bunny, this beloved series is celebrated for its gentle and authentic look at kid-truths.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The value of imaginative, free-form play has always been a key element of the Ladybug Girl books, and Soman and Davis emphasize it even more in this outing, which centers around a play date between Lulu and her friend Finny, a brown-skinned girl with dreadlocks. Readers will quickly recognize (along with Finny) that Lulu is more focused on Finny's large, equine pull-toy, Rolly-Roo, than she is on her friend. But before long the two have put the toy aside in favor of romping through fields, building fairy houses, and throwing tea parties. The friends' reconciliation comes a bit too easily, but Ladybug Girl's world is still a charming place to spend time. Ages 3 5.
