Ladybugs

This is actually quite good, but the pictures are not too attractive... of course, I'm a little turned off by bugs in general. My daughter brought this one home from the school library and found it quite easy to read on her own, needing very little help from me. This is a very good book for early readers, as there are few words on each page... and they are rather simple. I read this to my daughter first, then she read it back to me... and I found she was memorizing it... since there is only a sentence on each page, don't read it to the new reader but have them read it to you. The hardest word is ladybug, but they'll know that one just by the pictures. Otherwise, this book provides some simple facts about the insect that my child remembered much later when I asked about it again.
