Illustrated by
David Soman.
After her brother questions her costume choice, Lulu (a.k.a. Ladybug Girl) struggles to decide what to be for Halloween--until someone needs her help and she embraces her alter-ego once again. Soman's luminous ink and watercolor illustrations keep the pace moving, though the story is hampered by overly descriptive text. Still, many readers will relate to Lulu's problem.
