With a whole host of noisy zoo-animal characters to meet and even a
cameo from the Queen, What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday is a
fantastic rhyming adventure from stellar picture book partnership
of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks. Those two bad men, Lanky Len
and Hefty Hugh, are back! They may be in the city instead of the
farm, but they haven't changed their thieving ways. In fact,
they're even more ambitious. They're planning to steal a monkey
from the zoo and use him to pinch the Queen's crown. Unfortunately
for them, they don't know that a certain crime-busting ladybird is
holidaying in the very same city . . . and she's got a good idea
that will ensure the dastardly pair won't get away with it! Now
available as a board book, this much-loved classic is perfect for
young readers, with brilliant rhyming verse from Julia Donaldson,
author of The Gruffalo, and bright, distinctive illustrations from
award-winning illustrator, Lydia Monks. Enjoy more adventures with
the clever little ladybird in What the Ladybird Heard, What the
