Children's Author: Jerry Pallotta


At our last meeting, we were lucky enough to have Jerry Pallotta come and speak. We got to learn a lot of interesting information about how his books get published and how he got started writing. My favorite part about the workshop was learning all of the little secrets that most people do not know about his books and the illustrations inside of them. We learned many fun facts and he was so funny to listen to!

We were able to purchase his books at the meeting, and he even signed them for anyone who bought them!
 
 
 
He read some of his books to us while they were broadcasted on the projector and he told us fun facts about how the stories had changed since he originally wrote them. He even showed us orignal manuscripts from when he was first drafting out some of his books.


It was a great meeting and we are so thrilled that he was able to come!
