This year we made picture books, during the final draft I put lots of extra stuff in it, it was really fun. The one thing I would change about my book would be on one page I didn’t do the glitter the best so it falls right off and gets all over everything. I learned that writing and illustrating picture books are a lot harder than you may think, it takes a lot of time and effort to do it good. The brainstorming process was fun but it took a while, once I started the story and wrote a few pages it got easier and went quicker. I thought that it was really fun to share it with the 1st graders, they were shy though and didn’t want to say anything bad about our books.
