Kids at the Neighborhood House Charter School all want to guess which character from ESTELLE AND LUCY was Anna as a little girl! Kids help to demonstrate all the stages a book goes through on its publishing journey- who knew it took such a LONG time to make a book! What is the difference between a sketch and a painting for FRANCINE'S DAY? Kids learn how Anna plans out each painting very carefully.
Budget cuts have affected schools everywhere! If your school can't afford
a regular visit this year, ask about Anna's low-cost Skype visits.

Anna is happy to come to your school or event
and talk about the process of writing and illustrating
a children's book.

Curriculum for presentations:

HOW A PICTURE BOOK IS MADE
(Kdg-fourth grade)
THE MAKING OF AN AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR
(For Adult audiences)
BOOK READING AND TIE-IN ART ACTIVITY
