Signs of spring are everywhere! Join Max and Kate as they watch animals wake up after a long winter’s nap. Blow on a dandelion puff, learn the names of baby animals, and play on the playground with your friends! Do you have the courage to take on the big slide? Or would you rather hide beneath it? In “The Picnic,” by Carrie Finison, Jaden and his mother enjoy a picnic lunch at the park. They don’t realize that they’re not the only family sharing a picnic that day. Squirrels and ants are making a feast out of their crumbs and leftovers!
This fun-filled issue is packed with beautiful poetry, funny comics, entertaining puzzles, laugh-out-loud funny jokes, and even a super-cool wizard’s hat craft! Filled with the magic of the season, this issue of LADYBUG will charm any child!
