Jon Klassen

Jon Klassen, Author and Illustrator (The Dark) hosted a live webcast, in which children from Years 4, 5 & 6  listened to him talk about his love of picture books. 


Jon talked about his early career as an animator (which he disliked) and how he then went on to write and illustrate.

The children were transfixed as Jon read to them and then went on to demonstrate how he creates his quirky drawings.

The session ended with the children having a go themselves, producing some wonderful cartoon drawings.
