George McGregor is the type of eight year old who spends his day wearing a cobbled together super hero costume. Armed with a secret power — a handy-dandy travel-sized pack of tissues — he saves the day and leaves the world tear and runny nose free.
When his super hero-ing becomes mundane, a chance wish on a dandelion clock brings a new friend into George’s life. But this friend has a secret and its discovery leads to a larger than life adventure in a smaller than life world. With Mariquita as his ladybug guide, George experiences the fun and danger of an insect’s life.
Mariquita is a feel good story that explores the meaning of true friendship. It offers a smorgasbord of humorous insect characters that kids will love.
Reviewers are saying...
"Funny, very imaginative, compassionate, and cleverly written!”
“…a well written tale about friendship, magic and teamwork, that any child, or adult, will enjoy.”
"James And The Giant Peach meets Bugs Life. My kids loved it and so did I!"
Mariquita is a classic styled Children’s full-length novel with adorable black and white illustrations. Recommended for advanced readers age 8-12
