Author Visit

AUTHOR VISIT

Author Chris Lam Sam and illustrator Angela Keoghan,
co- creators of 'Inspector Brunswick: The Case of the Missing Eyebrow' came into see
Years 1 and 2 this week.


We were treated to a fabulous interactive 
Read-along
Draw-along &
Book-signing

'Inspector Brunswick' is a funny and charming picture book about the world's greatest cat detective and his loyal assistant, Nelson.

The children had a special ‘expressions’ drawing workshop from Angela Keoghan. They learnt how eyebrows alter facial expressions. Using Angela’s very own artwork they all got to try to make the Admiral’s expression change. The children made the face happy or sad, inquisitive or surprised, cheeky or sneaky. So much fun!

Both children and staff had a fabulous time.
