Description

Class Experience

Humans need to laugh, right? Why don't we laugh WHILE learning? And you can NEVER be too old to learn from a great picture book.

In this this camp which meets four times over a week, students will be introduced to elements of a funny story, learning about story features such as plot, character, and point of view. The final class will give students an opportunity to showcase their funny skills through writing!

Each class begins with introductions followed by sharing PARTS of the following...

I am the published author of over 25 books for children and have sold over 20000 copies on Amazon since 2012. Book series include BE THE VET, EVIE AND THE VOLUNTEERS, HAZEL: THE CLINIC CAT, NILES AND BRADFORD, CLARA AND TUNI, AND THIRD GRADE OUTSIDER. I give school talks to students about the writing process and encourage the following of one's passions and commitment to hard work despite setbacks. I hope to foster a love of learning and to help students to find joy in their writing.
