It was more casual than I thought. I expected more work exercises but this was just what I needed. Casual conversation-style delivery because I see now I will remember every tip! I LOVED this course. I didn't want it to end. I was very impressed with her in depth explanations of so many points. I can't imagine what she could have possibly left out. I read The Gruffalo afterwards and it was a perfect example of a well-rounded childrens book. Clever! Just what I strive to write someday. Great value for information in this course! Thank you Julia Donaldson.

This was a well produced and well presented intro course for absolute beginners. Although the course was pleasant and entertaining, I did not learn anything new.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Julia Donaldson is one of my families favourite authors, was truly amazing to watch and learn from her own experiences and her tips and tricks to writing a great picture book. The lessons were easy to watch, understand and having the course notes available made it easier to complete the tasks too. I cannot wait to begin my journey as an author. Thank you Julia!

JD's experience AND enthusiasm make it a wonderful, charming and insightful overview of the genre and how this area of writing, illustrating and publishing works. The dual conversations with her collaborators are particularly valuable.
