Stu Duval - Word Pictures

We really enjoyed Stu Duval today! He drew the most amazing picture (of a pirate and a seascape with the pirate ship in the background). We sat there stunned as the music swelled and his creation came alive before our eyes. Next Stu told the story of Rat Island. No-one had heard it before and boy, we were lucky!
Rat Island will be on sale (before Christmas). Meanwhile, check out his website http://www.studuval.co.nz/ (His other books all sound fantastic - I know I can seriously recommend "The Room of 100 Locks").

Tomorrow he is going to be teaching us cartooning skills - can't wait!

Mr M :)
