Who wants to be an author?

Today, we were visited by local author and illustrator Matt Buckingham, who visited each class to tell us all about being an author and illustrator. He showed us his books, read us his stories and answered lots of questions from the children. He showed us his sketch books and we were excited to tell him that we have sketch books in school too! We enjoyed hearing all about how you get to the final picture and the stages involved. We even got to draw our own characters, starting with just a scribble! We were mesmerised! What did you enjoy the most? Which story was your favourite? Thank you to Matt for coming to visit us. Please see www.mattbuckingham.co.uk for more information.
