This week 22 children came and made accordion books at the Fox Point Community Library! Some children illustrated their books with markers and crayons, while others used collage. The books ranged in topic from children's families, buildings, a bathroom book, a book about monsters, a great day when pizza fell from the sky, an adventure story about a silver acorn, and others were wordless picture books. Just like their creators, each book was a unique work of art! Some of the older children helped others in assembling their books. They were two fun filled days of bookmaking! Next week we will be making paste paper to use for collage and for the covers of journals and a variety of other books that we will be creating! I hope to see everyone next week and tell your friends and family about our workshops!
