Plot summary

Lulu's family is busy so she plays with her dog Bingo and spends time outside helping ants bypass rocks, crossing puddles that she imagines could contain sharks, and fixing up a rock fort.

Reception

A Kids Lit review says, "Captured in the illustrations are her sense of self and freedom. Lovely to see in a book for girls, Lulu is not squeamish and has a vivid imagination that keeps her more than busy enough while everyone is busy. The illustrations are full of movement, breeze and joy. They capture a day spent outside alone and the fun that can be found there.[1] A Kirkus Reviews review says, "Amusing watercolor and line illustrations capture Lulu at her most bored and Ladybug Girl at her most adventurous. Ideal inspiration for little ones seeking empowerment."[2] It is a best seller.[3]
