Local Author Ellie Peterson will be reading her book "Home is Calling" and leading participants through a butterfly craft that they get to keep!

Ellie Peterson is the author and illustrator of multiple picture books, including HOW TO HUG A PUFFERFISH and SCHOOL IS WHEREVER I AM. Her work is inspired by 20 years as a classroom teacher and her experience growing up as a biracial army brat. You can find her making art in her backyard studio or exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest, where she lives. Look for her new book HOME IS CALLING: The Journey of the Monarch Butterfly, which releases on August 8th, 2023. Learn more at elliepetersonart.com.
