#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Using real-life examples from Charlotte’s picture books, go behind the scene of how a book comes to be! Including storyboarding and illustration roughs, Prep–Year 3 students will learn how picture books and novels are published. Students will explore all stages of the publication process, from an author coming up with an idea through to a book ending up in a bookstore.

Charlotte Barkla
Charlotte Barkla worked as a civil engineer and physics teacher before rediscovering her love for children’s literature. She now writes picture books, middle-grade fiction and feature articles. Charlotte’s books include All Bodies are Good Bodies, From My Head to My Toes, I Say What Goes and the Edie’s Experiments series. When she’s not writing or running school workshops, you might find her teaching, reading, spending time with her family or drinking coffee. Lots of coffee.
