published author

We have a real published author in our house.

Presley's class has been working hard on author studies and illustrator studies.  And our final project was becoming a real author and a real illustrator by writing a story and drawing a picture to go with it.  We based our class story on Bill Martin, Jr.'s book Brown Bear, Brown Bear.  Each student chose an animal and then decided what they wanted to write about that animal.

And then they had to draw a picture that matched their story.

Don't you just love that pig?  : )    So proud.  The books got delivered this week and Presley has had to show everyone she sees AND read it each night before bed.
