Third and Fourth Graders Meet Graphic Novel Author
The third and fourth grade writers were able to meet with Boise resident and graphic novel author, Mat Heagerty, via Google Meet. Mat Heagerty is passionate about sharing his love of writing with students, referencing the impact that talking with a published author when he was young had on his writing life. Mr. Heagerty has published several graphic novels, including Lumber-Jackula. The student writers and the author talked about the collaboration that happens to publish a book, sparking many great questions from the students. Mr. Heagerty structured time in the session for the writers to work together to develop ideas for stories. Hailey Comets are writers!
