The clever little ladybird is on holiday in the city when she overhears Lanky Len and Hefty Hugh plotting their most ambitious heist yet: stealing a monkey from the zoo to help them pinch the Queen's crown. With the help of some noisy zoo animals and even the Queen's corgis, the ladybird devises a cunning plan to foil the dastardly duo. This delightful rhyming adventure is filled with vibrant illustrations and a host of memorable characters.
