I already read one of his books for outside reading, so I decided to compare this one. Both books have a kind of step by step format. Each page reveals the next "step" in the story. This sounds weird, but in The Very Hungry Caterpillar the caterpillar eats a little more each day until he turns into a butterfly. In The Grouchy Ladybug the ladybug asks a different person to fight him every day. I think this concept is important for both of these books, and it makes them easy to understand for children. My favorite part of The Very Hungry Caterpillar is when he finally turns into a beautiful butterfly. My mom used to have a felt board with each piece of the story that we could arrange and make fit. She would read us the story while we put each part in place. I really enjoyed reading this book again!
