Drawing workshop with author and illustrator Chris Riddell

Online illustration workshop with author and illustrator Chris Riddell 2021

Nov 2021
There was a buzz of excitement in the Byron House Library as some of the children in Form 2 assembled to take part in an online sketching workshop by author and illustrator Chris Riddell. Mr Riddell, who was Children’s Laureate, has also won the prestigious Greenaway Medal three times for his illustrations. The online session was designed to help inspire a love of reading and drawing and Art Teacher and Librarian Mrs Julia Clarke remarked, ‘Author visits are so crucial to inspiring children to read from an early age. Seeing Chris in action, doodling and sharing stories was fantastic.’

No wonder they love school! #phonics #words https://t.co/EFTNHL683g
