IvyKids Saturday: Let's Make Flower Crowns!

We're making flower crowns in the Ivy's outdoor space! Come on over and celebrate Shrinking Violet, an inspiring modern fairy tale about a brave girl who shrinks and grows depending on how she feels, showing how all of us--no matter our size--are so much bigger than our fears.

Written by one of the Ivy's most beloved children's book authors, Laurel Snyder, who will be with us to make our crowns, and illustrated by Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator LeUyen Pham.
