“Little Bug Earns Her Spots” by Julianne Endres

On May 2nd, author Julianne Endres delighted both children and adults with a reading of her new book, Little Bug Earns Her Spots. The children joined in, sharing thoughtful ideas about the kind things they can do for others, a perfect tie‑in to the book’s message.

After the reading, families enjoyed cake and lemonade, and the children had fun creating their own ladybug craft to take home.
