review 1: What the Ladybird Heard by Julia Donaldson, illustrated by Lydia Monks – Cute, onomatopoeia, suspenseful, creative, innovative, loved it. My son and I especially loved the extra stories that were simply but beautifully told through the illustrations. Discussed many quiet yet beautiful pages throughout. Such a great author/illustrator combination! This book is actually a theater production in Hong Kong soon, shall promote with children even more now that I took the time to read it!
review 2: This book is about a ladybird that lives on a farm with many other animals. The ladybird never speaks until she hears two crafty robbers plotting to steal the prize cow. The ladybird speaks and tells the other animals of her plan to stop them. I like this book because it h
... moreas some repetition and most of it is written in rhyming couplets. I also like the part when all the animals imitate each other in order to stop the robbers. I think this book would be suitable for nursery, reception and a year one class. I would use it to read to the whole class, whilst asking them key questions about the story. This book could lead onto further activities, such as retelling their own version of the story and creating maps. less
