About this deal

Think of some speech bubbles to show what the ladybird might be thinking at each point in the story. 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? Look at the pictures of the farm at the start and end of the book. Can you describe how they are different?

Remember to explore our teaching ideas for the sequel, What the Ladybird Heard Next. Teaching Ideas and Resources: English Write a character profile about Hefty Hugh and Lanky Len? what kind of people are they? Where do they live? I’m sure you’ll agree that there are some truly wonderful ideas here. We would like to thank our Family Days Tried & Tested community for allowing us to use their fabulous photos! 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?

Julia Donaldson says: “In the last Ladybird story, I had ruled out the thieves returning to the farm, so I needed a different setting this time around. I wrote What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday while on a book tour in South Africa and the animals I saw there gave me the idea for the new adventure. I was excited when I discovered that the Royal corgis are called Holly and Willow, as I had already written a lot of the story and needed rhymes for ‘golly’ and ‘pillow’ - it seemed meant to be!” 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. This alternative World Book Day idea has come from a very popular book, “The Tiger Who Came To Tea”. This greedy tiger waltzed into the house of a family and eats almost everything they have! If you’ve got a ravenous tike at home, this could be the costume for them! Dress your little one up in this cute unisex Ladybird costume for World Book Day, it’s super easy, simple and effective. This Julia Donaldson book tells the a tale of a farm full of animals that utilise their voices to stop thieves robbing the prize cow. Perfect for bedtime reading during early years. The thieves ‘crept’ into the farm. Think of synonyms which describe how people can move. Can you demonstrate each one (e.g. sprint, crawled, paced).An old classic that often gets forgotten about, why not dress your child up as some of the world’s most loved characters from Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows. Choose from Badger, Ratty, Mole or Mr Toad and have a jolly old time this World Book Day. It’s certainly a more unique idea than the hundreds of Willy Wonka’s and Mary Poppins that will enter the classroom! Lydia Monks adds: “I was so thrilled to get to go on holiday with the little ladybird! Working on this new story feels like spending time with an old favourite. We meet some new friends and visit some new places. A perfect holiday treat!” Can you make up a song which includes lots of examples of animal sounds? Get some ideas by watching this performance of a song by the author and her husband:
