Stage 2 - Author talk

Stage 2 - Author talk

On Thursday, two amazing authors came to our school. Their names were Katrina Nannestad and Matt Stanton.

Firstly, Katrina Nannestad spoke to us about how she develops interesting characters and three lucky people were able to dress up as the three main characters in her wonderful book - The Girl, The Dog and the Writer in Rome. Next, Matt Stanton spoke to us about how he illustrates funny characters if he has no idea what to do. He asks himself questions such as:

Does the character have big ears or small ears?

Does the character have tiny eyes or huge eyes?

Some people were even allowed to ask some questions to the authors.

It was a really thrilling day for everyone and it was really cool to meet two famous authors and talk to them in person. Thank you, Mrs De Horta for all your hard work in making books come to life!
