Ladybug Girl and the Best Ever Playdate: A Story about the Value of Friendship

Jacky Davis

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.

Praise for this book

Praise for Ladybug Girl and the Best Ever Playdate

"The artwork contains ethnic diversity, active girls, an endearing basset hound, and plenty of eye-catching indoor and outdoor backgrounds. . . . The language has been carefully crafted so that most of the conversations provide models for children just beginning to navigate the sticky wicket of socializing. . . . Goes down easy." --Kirkus Reviews

"With conflict and dialogue squarely centered in a child's world and expressive watercolor-and-ink illustrations, this is a welcome addition to a beloved series."--School Library Journal
