Don't miss this delightful magic and puppet show! A Summer Reading event for the entire family.

Benny Butterfly wants to be important to our Colorado ecosystem, just like bees. He goes to extravagant and hysterical lengths to try and fit in with the bees, but ultimately, he can’t be exactly like a bee. Can Magic Dave and friends help Benny understand that just being himself is the best way to go? Based on the book “Make Way for Butterfly” by Ross Burach. A Summer Reading event for the entire family. Presented by Magic Dave.
