Layla's Luck

From the Series Once Upon a Garden

  • Interest Level: Kindergarten - Grade 3
  • Reading Level: Grade 2

Will Layla’s baking measure up, or will her luck turn crummy?

Layla is a ladybug with a lucky charm for every occasion: lucky socks for running, a lucky pencil for tests, and a lucky watering can for her flowers. When Layla enters a baking event, she is counting on her good luck to help her bake a delicious cake. But is luck the only ingredient that matters? This is a clever tale of a ladybug who learns that success comes from her own smarts, skill, and hard work—not lucky charms and chance.
