George Ladybug – Character Insight
George Ladybug is a hippodamia parenthesis beetle with one seed to carry and a long way to go. Careful and determined, he scouted the whole backyard before ever picking up his precious cargo, mapping out every hazard and safe stop along the way. Someone once told him that if he plants his seed in the dirt plot across the yard, it will grow into the tallest flower the world has ever seen—and George believes them completely.

Character Notes
George carries only one seed, but he treats it like the most important cargo in Bug World. Before setting a single leg in motion, he surveys the whole backyard, noting dry patches for rest, grass clumps for cover, and the anthill near the fence to steer clear of. He even measures the depth of a puddle in his path—six beetle-lengths, about three inches—so he knows exactly what he’s up against. Someone once told him this seed will grow into the tallest flower the world has ever seen, and that belief is enough to carry him the whole long way across the yard.
