I had the pleasure of collaborating with accomplished local illustrator and graphic designer, Benny Lau, to talk with P4 and P5 girls of St Clare’s Primary School, Hong Kong. We were given a warm welcome by Ms Sandy, their English Department Head, and spent the afternoon working with energetic and enthusiastic students. I started with my interactive talk about writing stories from pictures, and Benny followed with his riveting session on drawing pictures to tell a story. It was fun to collaborate with Benny to hopefully inspire a new generation of creative storytellers. I’m always open to collaborations, so do get in touch!
