Betsy Lewin visit


On March 5, children in Kindergarten, First and Second grades had the opportunity to meet Caldecott-awarding winning illustrator, Betsy Lewin. In her delightful presentation, Ms. Lewin shared her love of travel, animals, and humor. She also drew characters on the spot based on a story created by the students, wherein a hamster and cat triumphed against an evil vampire bat. Ms. Lewin ended her presentation by showing students how expressive eyes can be in an illustration; the students were happy to learn how to craft eyebrows that show happiness, anger and silliness!
