🐞📖 What the Ladybird Heard! 🐮🐴

We’ve had a fantastic time on our final Story Walk of the summer in Brandon! 🌳✨

The children loved exploring our special route, finding all the animals along the way before heading back to Brandon Library for a lovely story and some fun crafts. 🎨📚

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made our summer Story Walks so much fun. ❤️

But don’t worry… we’ll be back! 👀

Keep an eye out for details of our next Story Walks coming during October half term! 🍂📖
