Over in the Valley: My Typical Author/Illustrator Visit
http://overinthevalley.blogspot.com/2012/03/my-typical-authorillustrator-visit.html
Saturday, March 24, 2012. My Typical Author/Illustrator Visit. When I visit a classroom to share Over in the Valley. Then, I will have the children create their own art based on my story. I help students create portraits of native species, and for older kids, we include habitat as well. There are several animals that could have been included, but weren't.

Over in the Valley: Student Art from a Recent Visit
http://overinthevalley.blogspot.com/2012/04/student-art-from-recent-visit.html
Sunday, April 1, 2012. Student Art from a Recent Visit. Last week I visited Gustine Elementary School kindergarten classes. I shared my book, "Over in the Valley" and we discussed characteristics of the various Valley species that are featured. We charted the animals according to their coverings; fur, feathers, skin or scales. I was able to bring along a few live animals, thanks to the Great Valley Museum, and the kids loved seeing real critters. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Art Education for Kids.

Over in the Valley: January 2012
http://overinthevalley.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 12, 2012. My self-published picture book is an exquisitely illustrated snapshot of Valley wildlife. I adapted the story from the traditional song “Over in the Meadow,” handed down for generations by my family members. I modified the song to reflect species that are native to the San Joaquin Valley, and produced the watercolor illustrations. Schedule a Spring 2012 presentation during January and receive a FREE preview copy of the book, plus 10% off the price of workshops. My Plan for 2012.

Over in the Valley: My Plan for 2012
http://overinthevalley.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-plan-for-2012.html
Wednesday, January 4, 2012. My Plan for 2012. After showing my book to a number of people - teachers, librarians, parents - I felt even more encouraged about the quality of my work. Then I sent it to a “real” book publisher. While they politely declined, they also said that my work was lovely. But, too regional. Not what's being published right now. Somewhat belatedly, I decided to take a class on book writing and illustration (from Mira Reisberg, http:/ mirareisberg.blogspot.com/. Such eloquence, Linda!
