Here is another book in our BOOK CLUB series. This wonderful book by Julia Donaldson has the ladybird saving the day (or night in this case)! The craft project for this story is a fun ladybird magnet. All you have to do is paint the wood piece red and then decorate it with black markers. Add a small piece of pipe cleaner and a magnet and the project is done!
