Have you ever told a story to your child or grandchild? A story that they kept asking you to repeat? Have you ever thought… Maybe this is a book! In this mini-workshop, author Andrew Hiller will guide you through the stepsto take your concept/oral story to finished product. We’ll discuss rhyming vs. non rhyming books, use of language/vocabulary, page spreads, and illustrations. Most importantly, by the end of the session, we will make a book/book dummy. Note: You need not be an artist or illustrator to take part in this workshop.

Andrew HillerAndrew Hiller fell off the road least chosen to find himself writing for public radio, the Muppets, and the New York Stage. As a best selling humorist, he is honored to have had his work selected as best of the year by Amazing Stories Magazine (2023) and BFF (2019). A little goofy, Andrew delighted in leading more than 2,000 librarians at the American Library Association annual convention in a rousing parody of C is for Cookie (B is for Bookie.) while celebrating the publication of his first children's book, Pitter Patty Finds Another Day.
