Join Max, Kate, and little Charlie for a fun day at the carnival! Everybody gets to choose a ride! In Carrie Kruck’s fanciful story, “Milo and Button Take Flight,” a young boy discovers that his dog’s long ears give him the incredible power to fly. Together, the two of them go on an amazing adventure and even visit a town carnival! Play with puppies and kittens, ponder about the wonders of the world, and learn all about carousels!
You can have plenty of fun outdoors this summer, even without carnival rides! Grow a beautiful rooftop garden, then follow the journey of a watermelon from a tiny seed to a family’s picnic! Vivid artwork by Susan Swan will make you feel like you’re outside in nature! Plus, team up with Ladybug, Muddle, and Thud as they turn junk into a fun playground. Finish up a long day of fun in the sun with a campfire song alongside your best friends.
Don’t miss the takeout pages, where kids can create their own colorful carousel mobiles! This issue of LADYBUG is a wild ride from start to finish!
