Author Sam Squiers and I attended a community literacy event hosted by Little Scribblers ELC in Brighton-le-Sands, a brand new childcare and preschool centre set to open in June 2025. It was an absolute delight to read our book RUNNING WITH WINGS to the early childhood audience (and Bluey and Bingo) and then spend some quality crafting time with the eager little creatives.
It was an absolute pleasure having Lara visit Little Scribblers as part of our community literacy event. She delivered a beautifully tailored experience for our early childhood audience, combining a warm and engaging live reading with a hands-on art session that truly brought her story to life. Lara has a remarkable ability to connect with young children — from her expressive storytelling to the thoughtfully planned art activity that used accessible materials and encouraged creative exploration. Her calm presence, gentle guidance, and clear passion for illustration made the session both educational and magical. We would welcome her back in a heartbeat and highly recommend her for school visits, workshops, and events that value creativity, literacy, and early learning.
