What the Ladybug Heard

(3) PS Illustrated by Lydia Monks. A ladybug who "never said a word" overhears robbers plotting to steal the farmer's prize cow. She saves the day by speaking up to tell the animals how they can foil the plan. Donaldson's rhyming text is full of kid-friendly language ("the farmer woke and said, 'Golly gosh!'") and is well matched with Monks's vibrant collage illustrations.
