Insect Tales Puppet Show by John Lechner

Tuesday, July 164:00—4:45 PMLibrary Community RoomNeedham Free Public Library1139 Highland Avenue, Needham, MA, 02494

Local author/illustrator John Lechner presents a musical, interactive puppet show for all ages! A hoverfly named Phinni shares a meadow with a long-legged fly, a grouchy beetle, and a shy butterfly. But when a storm washes away their home, they must search for a new place to live, all while avoiding the praying mantis! Performed with table-top puppets, this story weaves together facts about insects and their lives, and builds appreciation for the natural world.

John Lechner is an author, illustrator, animator, and puppeteer who grew up in Needham. He is also an avid gardener and draws inspiration from nature for his stories and comics. You can see more of his work at his website, www.johnlechner.com.
