Maia and the Magical Ladybug (An English - Portuguese (Portugal) Bilingual Adventure): Sometimes courage whispers before it roars.

Maia and the Magical Ladybug (Bilingual English-Portuguese Edition) is a gentle, empowering early chapter book that helps children discover the strength of their voice-in two languages.

Maia has always been quiet. Not because she doesn’t have anything to say, but because saying it out loud feels hard. Then one day, under the old oak tree, a talking ladybug named Bella appears... and everything changes.

With Bella’s encouragement, Maia shares her very first story-and learns that courage can begin with a whisper.

This bilingual English-Portuguese edition supports multilingual families, dual-language classrooms, and readers navigating self-expression in a world that often feels too loud.

Ideal for ages 7-10, this story supports:

• • Social-emotional development
  • Language learning in English and Portuguese (Portugal)
  • Early independent reading and confidence-building

Features:

• Bilingual text in English and Portuguese (Portugal)
• Full-color illustrations on every page
