Hey All,
Susannah Richards is going to speak to my illustration class this Thursday (20th) at 12:30 pm. She's a TOTAL EXPERT in children's picture books. In fact, she is on the jury for the Caldecott Medal (that is THE top award in picture books in the U.S.). How's that?! Here is her bio:
"
Susannah Richards is an Assistant Professor of Reading/Language Arts at Eastern Connecticut State University where she teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on language arts methods, children's and young adult literature, and reading and writing strategies for elementary and secondary teachers. She reads, collects, reviews and presents on books for youth at state and national conferences. She currently writes a column on books, reviews picture books for
School Library Journal and is on the ballot for the 2010
Caldecott Committee."
She'll join us at 12:30 pm in #108.
