I bought this backpack for my pre-schooler.  I love that it is big enough to put folders in, but doesn't dwarf her when she has it on.  She loves that it has a side pouch for a water bottle, and of course, the ladybugs.  I was also happy to discover the label INSIDE the pack on which to write my child's name, address, and phone number.  The front pouch contains various size pockets in which she likes to put her treasures.  Well made, strong materials that can take the handling of a child. Very happy we picked this one!
