About this deal

The Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks author and illustrator partnership began 14 years ago, when they first worked together on Princess Mirror-Belle, which currently has a 2017 World Book Day book in the market. What the Ladybird Heard and What the Ladybird Heard Next have sold 1.5 million copies in all formats worldwide, with 20 foreign editions currently in-print. What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday is Julia and Lydia’s ninth picture book together.

Identify the rhyming words used throughout the book. Can you make your own rhyming dictionary, adding other rhyming words for the ones found? Look at the vocabulary used to describe how the thieves are planning to steal the cow. What other direction words can you think of?

Create a simple model of the farm and use some programmable robots (e.g. roamer, remote control vehicles) to move around it. Could you decorate the roamer so that it looks like the ladybird? What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday has a cacophony of noisy new zoo-animal characters, a cameo from the Queen and her corgis, and, of course, a cunning plan from thieves Lanky Len and Hefty Hugh. It’s a pity for them that a certain crime-busting ladybird is on holiday in the very same city … and she’s got a good idea that will ensure the dastardly pair won’t get away with it! This new story is destined to become yet another glittery classic in the Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks collection. Think about the different sounds that animals make. How do we write these (e.g. miaow, purr)? Can you think of any other examples of onomatopoeia? Are there any other examples in the story? The ladybird whispered into each animal’s ear. Think of other words that describe how we can communicate with others (e.g. shouted, screamed, hissed, chattered). Look at the adjectives that are used to describe each animal. How many other adjectives can you think of to describe them? Use the animal posters (see Resources below) and write adjectives on them.

Can you sort the animals in the story using Venn or Carroll diagrams? Which ones have two legs? Which have four legs? Which ones have a beak or a nose? How many other ways could you sort them?Look at the illustrations of the farm in the book. Look at the different textures used on the tree / grass / buildings. Can you try to recreate these textures using different art materials?
