Whispers to Waves: Maia the Storyteller 1 and Magical Ladybug (An English French Bilingual Adventure)

A talking ladybug. A quiet girl. A story waiting to be told. A gentle, illustrated chapter book about quiet bravery, self-expression, and the magic of being yourself — perfect for ages 6–10.

One sunny afternoon, under her favorite oak tree, Maia meets Bella — a talking ladybug with a lot to say and even more encouragement to give.

With light illustrations and age-appropriate chapters, it's ideal for early independent readers, classroom reading circles, or cozy bedtime moments.
