Jitterbug / Kai Lüftner ; [illustrations by] Wiebke Rauers ; translated from German by Marshall Yarbrough.

Jitter bug (other title)
Lüftner, Kai, 1975- (author.). Rauers, Wiebke, 1986- (illustrator.). Yarbrough, Marshall, (translator.).

Summary:

Ladybugs are so cute, small, and fly so gently. Not so for the "Jitterbug"--Lady B. Marie! Her heart beats for rock 'n' roll. Instead of going flower to flower, Jitterbug strums her electric guitar and belts out melodies. But Papa, Ms. Snail, Mr. Grasshopper and many of the meadow dwellers aren't so sure they're fans. Will Jitterbug give up? Told in rollicking rhyme, this story reminds us all to be our own beetle.
