What was your primary motivation for purchasing this course?
Learn a new skill
“I like the practical approaches to the different topics chosen for each lesson. It was interesting to see Julia Donaldson find examples in her own books and those of other authors to reinforce a teaching point. The case study was particularly helpful.
The dialogue with the illustrator, agent and editor ensured variety of 'voice' and 'perspective'.
The course provides an in-depth presentation of the whole process of creating a children's picture book.”

“I’m part-way through the course. Julia Donaldson is thorough with many aspects of creating a picture book, including many examples. She also presents it in a way that, despite being such an established presence in literature, is in no way patronising, nor does it assume you know the first thing about the subject either. A great start, which has so far been very inspiring”
