AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY

Lea Fearn a single Mum that has worked with children for many years. I have always adored and loved nature, and through my interactions with children I have realised that kids have a fascination and attraction to learn about bugs, nature, and the world around them. Whilst working in long day care service, I found that I could have a line-up of 50 children who would just want to hold and see a beetle that I had found in the playground. In 2010 I created a business called Bug Kidz . I educate and entertain children through musical puppet shows, sporting events and games, information sessions and interactive viewing of live insects. The most important thing I include into my shows is an environmental awareness.

I constantly receive many positive comments from parents & educators such as; “That was a great show, even I learnt things” – “Usually the children will not sit through a show but the kids loved your show from start to finish”- “I can’t believe how enthusiastic that child is to pat the insects, they are usually very shy”.

I find insects endlessly amazing and fascinating! They are here on this earth to help nature’s balance. If we took away all insects, all life on this earth would perish.

Thank you for reading this book, I hope you have enjoyed it. Bug Kidz is based on the Gold Coast, Queensland Australia. Please check out my website for further information. www.BugKidz.com.au
