Have a Backyard Picnic (The Bugville Critters #14, Lass Ladybug's Adventures Series)

Have a Backyard Picnic is the seventh book in Lass Ladybug's Adventures Series, part of Robert Stanek's Bugville Critters--ten years in the making, first released in audio, and now available in print for the first time. Robert Stanek, the highly-acclaimed author of more than 75 books for young people and adults, including Journey Beyond the Beyond and The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches, has selected an irresistible combination for this age group--loveable critters and exciting reading adventures. In this story, Lass doesn't let Cat come over to play because she and her other friends are practicing for the B. Havior School Annual Spelling Bee. Mom Ladybug comes up with a plan to correct Lass's rude behavior and that plan includes a fantastic picnic lunch in the backyard for Lass and her friends. The wonderfully-crafted story is paired with energetic illustrations and playful examples that help children discover the world around them and the joy of reading.
