This session makes use of my picture book titles (Quincy, Gumboots,The Postman’s Race, Periwinkle’s Ride, Delilah’s Dream) and some unpublished stories and introduces to the children what a writer does and how a writer creates a story from a simple idea. It includes readings from the titles, discussions of topics such as scary things, (Quincy), and our dreams (Delilah’s Dream). Little kids like some hands-on stuff, so there are also some simple activities included as follow-ups to the readings and discussions. “I like when Esmeralda ate the flowers and she slept on the haystack. Your story was beautiful. I dream of being a good football player.”
