Written by Julia Donaldson, Illustrated by Lydia Monks
Ladybug takes a trip to town to see the sights, and one of the sights is the zoo. At the zoo she sees and hears many things. Ladybug recognizes two men, Lanky Len and Hefty Hugh. They are up to no good. They want to kidnap Monkey Joe and have him steal the Queen’s crown. The ladybug spreads the news at the zoo and shares her plan with the monkey. The Queen’s dogs are also part of the plan. Ladybug, with the help of others, tricks those would-be robbers. The pictures are bright and the rhymes are fun.
