Young Authors And Art

Delila Franklin, LeClaire kindergarten student, used an original piece she created during her regular Art Class as inspiration for a complete Young Author's 
book!  Her entire story is illustrated using original collage creations, with a new work of art visible with the turn of every page!  Eric Carle, author and illustrator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, also used original collages to illustrate many of his best known stories.  Three cheers for Delila, who may just be the next Eric Carle!  I am so proud of you and your amazing work!
