CRITICAL ANALYSIS
A sight for the eyes, this book is full of simple, brightly colored illustrations, digitally created. The text is multi-colored and done in various fonts, inside of chat bubbles. The silly ladybug narrating is easy for children to relate to in her simpleness as she leads them in a game of let's pretend. This is a phenomenal book for storytime and reading aloud as it causes lots of audience participation. Be prepared for noise, giggles and lots of action.
Highly recommended to engage even the most reluctant child.
