Author and Illustrator Visit

Annaliese Stoney, an Author and Illustrator, came to visit us today.
We had a brilliant time getting lost in the world of books, and learning how to illustrate and write a great story.

Below are some pictures of some of the things we got up to!

First Annaliese shared her book 'It's Not Just a Blanket' with us.

Then we got warmed up and ready to draw by doing a squiggle game.



Then, we started thinking about drawing characters. 
We used Annaliese's character tool boxes to have a go at drawing our own.








After lunch, we then did a comic strip planning a story. It was in the style of Annaliese's book. 
We had to think about our character playing with a box, a stick or a cardboard tube. 
What could your imagination make it?
There were some fab ideas.
