the Fatou Storysack...

I love these storysacks. And I loved illustrating this story. http://www.storysack.com/sacks/show/83 to preorder one now. There are also lots of teacher/parent resources on the http://www.cornertolearn.com website for downloading!

Day One: Marysville P.S. Wolfe Island

Finishing up my first day of a two-day literacy workshop at Marysville Public School. Digesting what I learned, and hoping that the kids had fun. They certainly were excited! We're re-telling the folk tale the Enormous Potato... what they came up with was awesome - A leprochaun stuck in a pot of gold, the earth getting stuck in a black hole, an a moose stuck in a tree.. today they brainstormed, worked out the stories and started sketching - they are looking good!

A lovely school, small and intimate. Lovely teachers, funny kids. Looking forward to painting on Wednesday.

This is the first time I've done such a large group - so I hope it turns out well!
