Ladybug is so lazy that she doesn't know how to fly. She wants to find a new place to sleep and decides to ride on passing animals. But Kangaroo's pouch is too bumpy, and Crocodile's tail is too wet. When she hops onto Elephant's trunk, she gets a big surprise!

Because she sleeps all day and all night, the Very Lazy Ladybird doesn't know how to fly. One day, she wants to sleep somewhere else, but what can she do if she can't fly? So she hops on to the kangaroo - but that is too bouncy. Then she hops on to the tiger - but that is too noisy. Finally she hops on to the elephant's trunk, where she is sure it would be nice to rest.
