Author and illustrator Jonathan Bean, a native of Fleetwood, made a full circle with his newest book, “Building Our House.”

Bean presented his newest work for children at Firefly Bookstore in Kutztown on Jan. 12, followed by an open house tour of his family’s home in Fleetwood.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for children to meet an author and illustrator of books they have or will read,” said Firefly owners Rebecca Laincz and Matthew Williams. “More importantly, he is from the area and the book is about his childhood experience of his parents building the family’s house in Fleetwood.”
