The Life Cycle of a Ladybug

There are more than 4,000 kinds of Ladybugs! That’s a lot!

Each species of ladybug has its own special colors and patterns, but the most familiar in North America is the seven-spotted ladybug. Ladybugs mainly live in forests and fields. Ladybugs are also known as lady beetles or ladybird beetles. In many cultures, ladybugs are considered good luck! Ladybugs are popular little critters due to their unique features, the gracefulness of their flight and because they are harmless to humans, but did you know that farmers love ladybugs because the ladies eat aphids and other plant-eating pests. One little ladybug can eat up to 5,000 insects in its lifetime!

Life Cycle of A Ladybug is ideal for readers from Kindergarten to Grade 3, and the book is part of the Life Cycles set from Blastoff! Readers. There are 24 pages full of bright, vibrant images and photographs and all the facts about lovely ladybugs that young minds would love to know!
