Hundreds of ladybugs in a variety of colors and with varying wing patterns, all depicted true to size, line up at the start to compete, but only one will be the winner. Or will more than one? It depends on what you think it means to win.
With a surprising and exceptionally creative use of the book's gutter, children of all ages will learn from the tiny Ash Gray ladybug in this book who not only spreads his wings, but also acts with kindness and compassion like a leader worth following.
This book was a finalist in the 2014 Silent Book Contest.
