Lydia The Ladybug In Paris

The King of France sees a need to build alliances with all the animals in the animal kingdom. To accomplish this end, he decides to host a fashion show in Paris where all the animal queens will be invited to display their finest attire. The animal queen who is voted to be the most fashionable will then be awarded a jewel from His Majesty's royal crown becoming most renown. One day, unexpectedly, a coach bearing the King's footman shows up at Lydia's door. She receives an invitation to this grand affair. How will Lydia, just a humble little ladybug, fare in this majestic pageantry with queens clad in the most glamorous attire? The imaginative plot with its twists and turns will have you laughing out loud while at the same time profoundly touched by its inspiring message. The author's skillful use of humorous rhyme, the dynamic storytelling, and the fanciful renderings of these queens in their fashion haute adds sheer magic to this heartwarming adventure. Recommended for ages 5-11

5Lydia charms me agaib  Feb 09, 2009
If you haven't read, "Lydia, The Story of How The Ladybug Earned Her Wings," go out and get it immediately. Then read the second book in the series, "Lydia The Ladybug in Paris." You'll get enchanting stories, magical characters and life lessons that are as important now as they were when we were children. Great for children and for adults with a child's heart.

5Lydia the Ladybug in Paris one of the most creatively written stories I've read in a long time!  Feb 07, 2009
Lydia the Ladybug in Paris is one of the most creatively written stories I've read in a long time! The tale is whimsical and inspiring, revealing a positive message about kindness to animals and others that any parent would want their child to embrace. Yes, I'm now a huge fan of Lydia and I'm sure you will be too.


The illustrations are just wonderful. My favorite is the horse drawn carriage on page 15. The dictionary in the back of the books allows for children to expand and explore the vocabulary introduced to them throughout the story. What a clever way to improve a child's vocabulary. I can't to see where Lydia will go next!

5Thank You for Another Great Lydia Book  Feb 02, 2009
Marie Lawrence has done it again!

This second Lydia book uses a delightful style filled with wit and rhyme to tell the story of Lydia the Ladybug's magical trip to Paris as a guest of the King and Queen of France.

Lydia the Ladybug in Paris is once again exquisitely illustrated by Emelia Lawrence, and these colorful and beautiful pictures add another wonderful dimension that helps bring the story to life.

After Lydia suffers an embarrassing "fashion disaster", Lydia's true and caring heart helps her to come back more glorious and profound than ever. In the process, Lydia wins the hearts and admiration of everyone in Paris!

This is a book that should be read by children and adults of all ages. I strongly recommend this book and can only say...."Bring on Lydia's next adventure!"

5A Sheer Delight  Jan 15, 2009
If you are concerned about raising "conscious kids" and feel a little lost in the plethora of children's books out there, stay tuned to the adventures of Lydia the Ladybug. This sequel to the original version is filled with kindness and delicacy, teaching not just tolerance but joyful celebration of (cultural) diversity. Children will be enchanted by the wittiness of the rhymed prose and the colorful, magic-filled drawings. I just signed up on LydiaTheLadybug.com for updates on Lydia and her friends and look forward to future episodes.
