Series: Ladybug Girl

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 . . . plays with it more than she plays 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, the girls repair the broken toy, and soon forget all about it, blasting off on new imaginative adventures together. This eighth book in the series, celebrated for its gentle and authentic look at kid-truths, brings to the Ladybug Girl world both more diversity and a story perfect for any kid, any day of the year.

This latest hardcover picture book from the New York Times bestselling Ladybug Girl series proves that true friendship is better than any toy

Reviews for Ladybug Girl and the Best Ever Playdate

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. . . .
