SNAP BY ANNA WALKER

One of my favourite illustrator’s ‘Anna Walker’ has recently released a new picture story book ‘Snap’.

On the weekend I was lucky enough to attend the official launch of her book. Anna discussed her new style which includes collage with painted paper and printing. snap is an early years picture story book about the adventures of a frog in the forest. 

This week during art classes we listened to the story and engaged in a number of frog related activities including… 

 

Preps: textured paintings of frogs in an action movement 

Year One and Two: drawing frogs in motion, drawing frogs using circles 

Year Three and Four: moving frog puppets 

Year Five and Six: developing frog characters of our own, stretching our drawings 

Snap will soon be available to listen and watch on Story Box Library.
