Drawing with Lee Harper

Our author visit with Lee Harper was delightful.  He talked about his love of drawing as a child and how he still loves drawing fun/funny pictures.  He read the story of a clever turkey in the book Turkey Trouble by Wendi Silvano which he illustrated and asked if the children would like to draw a turkey. There was a resounding, "YES!"  He walked them through simple steps using shapes to create the turkey's body and encouraged them to add their own funny and unique details.  Then they got to try their hand at a sheep.  They had great fun and did a super job participating in this special, up-close author workshop.
