For Katherine Applegate
ReplyDeleteShe won the Golden Kite award in 2008for best fiction and that she won the 2013 Newbery Medal for her children's novel The One And Only Ivan.
For Laura Vaccaro Seeger
That she won so many awards and even a Emmy award and hoe in her book Bully how she painted the bull with a twig.
Katherine Applegate: it took about a year to write her book.I never knew that Ivan was real.
ReplyDeleteLaura Seeger:
She won 3 or 4 awards I can't remember.She has great illustrations and words.Bye!!!
Katherine Applegate: I never knew the Yambo story was real in The One and Only Ivan. I don't believe that the gorilla in the story was so gentle with the kid. I am surprised that Ivan grew up in a tiny box for more than two decades.
ReplyDeleteLaura Seeger: I can't believe that she won so many awards!! I learned that Laura Seeger just had a stuffed bear and her editor just asked her to write a story about the bear. It became a series out of nowhere!!
I love it when visiting authors come! I also love writing and drawing. Because I like to write, it is so interesting to hear other authors thoughts and opinions! I learned a little bit about two authors that came this week. Katherine Applegate and Laura Vaccaro Seeger.
ReplyDeleteKatherine Applegate: She wrote many books including The Buffalo Storm and many series including Roscoe Riley Rules. Her book Home of the Brave was awarded the Golden Kite Award in 2008. She lives in California with her husband, two children, and assorted pets.
Laura Vaccaro Seeger: She won a lot of awards including an Emmy. She wrote 16 books. She is a very good artist. She has two sons named Drew and Dylan and a dog named Copper.
I have learned a lot so far this week!
Here are three facts about Katherine Applegate. One of them is she took some real facts about Ivan and made some parts up and made a book about him,she also got the name Julia from her daughter, and she loves gorillas. Three facts that I learned about Laura Seeger is that she loves to make children's books. One other fact that I learned about her was that she won two Caldecott awards and she cuts holes in her books to make you look more in to the pictures.
ReplyDelete*It is cool that Kattherline showed us a video of a gorilla touching a child
ReplyDelete*It is also cool that wrote a book about a gorilla

It is so interesting when a author or illustrator comes to our school. Two things I thought were interesting that Katherine Applegate said were that sometimes it can take two years to write a book, and that you mess up a bunch. Two things that Laura Vaccaro Seeger talked about was a book called Bully that taught you how to stand up to bullying, and a book called green that had holes in the pages.
ReplyDeleteI liked how Katherine Applegate told the story from Ivan's point of view and not a humans. In the presentation I liked that she told Ivan's story and gave us some details. I also liked how her and her husband Wrote a book called Animorphs.
ReplyDeleteWhat I learned about the other author is that she has won an Emmy and two Caldecott meddles. A dog named Copper and two sons. She wrote 16 books!!!!!
I thought it was interesting when Katherine Applegate told us that Ivan was a real gorilla and based The one and only Ivan about Ivan.I also liked when she told us how to write a good book and how long it takes.What I liked about Luara Seeger was that she did holes in her pages to make it go with the next picture.I wonder how Ivan got his name?
ReplyDeleteI thought that it was cool that Ivan is a real gorilla. I thought that it was also cool when she showed use the Gorilla video. I liked when Laura Seeger showed use how she drew Bull. I like how she did the holes in her book.
