Author Visit

Today our school had a very special visitor! Author/Illustrator Chris Van Dusen came to visit and met with classes to teach us about his books and how he writes/illustrates! Chris is the author/illustrator of several books including the Circus Ship, and the illustrator of the Mercy Watson books, written by Kate DiCamillo. He is a resident of the state of Maine and illustrated the design on the Maine license plate as well as covers for the LLBean catalog! It was very exciting for everyone to meet the author/illustrator of some of our favorite books in first grade.
