Don’t think about it, just do it." – Chris Riddell Chris Riddell strongly believes that drawing together, like reading together, is a bonding experience. This activity will get your group drawing together. You will need: coloured pens or pencils and a big roll of paper, wall lining paper would be good. Pick out some quotes or titles of children’s books, write or print them out onto pieces of paper and put them in a shoebox. Each child picks out a piece of paper and draws what it makes them think of on the big piece of paper. Everyone can draw at the same time, that’s the fun. When everybody has finished, admire the piece of art you have created together! Can you guess which picture matches which quote or book title? Create your own sketchbook Since Riddell became the Children’s Laureate in 2015, he has created a sketchbook, drawing a new page every day. You can take a look at his sketchbook here. Your group can use exercise books or why not get them to create their own books? You can easily create an 8 page book using just a single sheet of A4 paper. There are videos on youtube to show you how, such as this one. Once your group have sketchbooks, they can fill them up. They could do like Riddell and take them home to complete a page each day or if you want to fill them up during the session why not fill them using favourite book characters or cutting out images and words from magazines. Drawing with Chris Riddell There are lots of videos on youtube of Chris Riddell demonstrating how to draw various characters from his books. For example in this video he draws Ishmael - The Ghost of a Mouse from his book Goth Girl. Watch one of these videos with your group and get everyone to have a go at drawing one of Riddell’s characters. You could also get your group members to have a go at making their own videos. They could demonstrate their own drawing, or something else they are good at such as craft, telling a story or acting out a scene from a book. Page 6 of 14 Children’s Laureate for a day The Children's Laureate is a well known writer of children's books who promotes and encourage children's interest in books, reading and writing. A new one is chosen every two years. Children’s Laureates have done lots of different things to encourage children to enjoy books, reading and writing. They have created exciting children’s book festivals launched competitions and toured around libraries across the country. Ask your group to imagine they are the new Children’s Laureate. How would they get other kids interested in books, reading and writing? Share everyone’s ideas. Children could draw a picture or write about their idea too.

Fantasy doesn’t sell. Teenagers won’t buy books with pictures. This is what illustrator Chris Riddell and writer Paul Stewart were told in the 1990s. A million copies of the Edge chronicles later, they tell Ruth Prickett that their success rests on attention to detail – from architecture and economics to fashion and cartography In the beginning was a map. There aren’t many authors who would admit that their hugely successful series started with an illustration.

Stewart’s publisher, however, was more confident, and the Edge legends were born in 1998, the same year the second Harry Potter book was published, but before Harry Potter mania had every publisher reaching for his chequebook.

  • BEFORE YOU START Prepare a Group Journal to Help You Record Group Discussions and Responses to the Text As You Work Through the Book
    BEFORE YOU START Prepare a group journal to help you record group discussions and responses to the text as you work through the book. These notes refer to the edition illustrated by Chris Riddell but can also be used with Dave McKean’s original illustrations, with some minor adjustments. You could create a glossary of new vocabulary as you read the book – you may want to prepare a format for doing this. As you go through the book, ask the group to pick out words they are unfamiliar with or do not fully understand, such as velvet, muzzle, vermin, raggedy, embroidery, vivid, monstrous, anteroom, shovelled, commercials and rummaged. You could prepare photographs and video sources to bring these words to life and help the pupils use them in context. © Bloomsbury SESSION 1: CHAPTER 1 Focus: Predicting, Close Reading, Thinking Aloud and Summarising Share the front cover with the group. (Do not share the back cover at this point as it reveals some aspects of the plot you may wish to hold back while the children make predictions.) Ask the children to predict what the story could be about. Ask them to justify their responses, drawing out any connections they make to other stories. Record the children’s responses in the journal. Once you have recorded their predictions you can return to these as you read the book, comparing the children’s initial thoughts to how the story actually unfolds. –––––– © Bloomsbury Encourage the children to look in detail at the cover illustration and make connections between this text and other stories they know.

  • Malorie Blackman – Writer
    Malorie Blackman – writer Blackman was born in Clapham, London. Her parents were both from Barbados. At school, she wanted to be an English teacher, but she grew up to become a systems programmer instead. She earned an HNC at Thames Polytechnic and is a graduate of the National Film and Television School. Blackman's first book was Not So Stupid, a collection of horror and science fiction stories for young adults, published in November 1990. Ever since, she has written more than 60 children's books, including novels and short story collections, and also television scripts and a stage play. Her work has won over 15 awards. Blackman's television scripts include episodes of the long-running children's drama Byker Grove as well as television adaptations of her novels Whizziwig and Pig-Heart Boy. Her books have been translated into over 15 languages including Spanish, Welsh, German, Japanese, Chinese and French. Blackman's award-winning Noughts & Crosses series, exploring love, racism and violence, is set in a fictional dystopia. Explaining her choice of title, in a 2007 interview for the BBC's Blast website, Blackman said that Noughts and Crosses is "one of those games that nobody ever plays after childhood, because nobody ever wins".[8] In an interview for The Times, Blackman said that before writing Noughts & Crosses, her protagonists' ethnicities had never been central to the plots of her books. She has also said, "I wanted to show black children just getting on with their lives, having adventures, and solving their dilemmas, like the characters in all the books I read as a child." Blackman eventually decided to address racism directly.
