Bad-Tempered Ladybird

Just like other books from Eric Carle, this book delivers an important message to toddlers and young children about the importance of controlling our temper and to choose our fights.A bad tempered lady bird who does not want to share its food with another friendly lady bird keeps going to bigger and bigger animals and instigating a fight. What happens when it reaches the biggest animal on the earth? And in the end does it really get to eat all the food?A very creative way of illustrating the story with a morale. Children can learn about animals, get a sense of small and big, and appreciate the importance controlling our actions when we are angry.High quality printing, beautiful illustrations and paperback takes almost no space. Overall, I would highly recommend adding this book to your toddler's library.

1. Size comparisons between the ladybird and the opponent she meets2. The mini clocks on the top to teach how to read time3. The position of the sun wrt the time on clock4. The role of aphids in plants and ladybugs lives.What is not to love about this book...!!

The media could not be loaded. This is a perfect book for my 4& half year old boy. The value inculcated through this book of being happy, caring and kind is a great help for growing kids.The pages are beautifully cut in a pattern and look beautiful.A must have on your kid's book shelf.

The book has good story and pictures. The concept is also ok for teaching your child how to learn to recognize hour on the clock. I believe the price is on a higher side. Thanks

Best book for kids to teach abt small to big ....abt time....benifits of lady bug ...as usual Eric carle painting was tooooo gud.... esp the sunrise ( when the time was 6 and so on)

Great illustrations , Good to teach concepts of clock face - time and size - In addition to the perils of being bad tempered

This book is a blessing for me as my toddler is short tempered and with this story book he now understands that we need to be friendly not grouchy. And the concept of sunrise and sunsets is brilliantly described!!

Book is good. Not as great as other more famous titles by the same author.Packing was shoddy and hence book was dented on delivery hence one star less.
