  Scott School will celebrate  Author/Illustrator Day with Kristi Valiant on Friday.  Valiant is the author/illustrator of the book Penguin Cha Cha and the illustrator of Danielle Steele’s first children’s book Pretty Minnie in Paris.  She has also illustrated the Little Wings series, as well as several other children’s books.  While at Scott, Valiant will meet with each grade level. She will tell students about how she became an author and illustrator; and then work with the students to create an original character, plot, conflict, setting, and theme.  Together, they will develop the beginning of the story, and also work on illustrations that could be included.  Each grade will keep its rough draft and illustrations so that more work can take place on it throughout the year.
