A huge thank you to Lane Smith for joining us for a live classroom visit! Stay tuned for the link to the recording. 📚

💬 Mrs. Foster’s class in Michigan asked Lane Smith when he started writing books. 📚 “I had a great teacher in elementary school who took my little stories and bound them into a book. Seeing my work in book form was such a thrill that I kept writing and drawing from then on."

💬 Paisley asked Lane Smith what materials he uses to illustrate his books. 🎨 “I use a lot of the same techniques I learned in elementary school. I paint with oils, do plenty of finger painting and scribbling, then scan my work and use Photoshop or Procreate to adjust colors."

💬 Second grader Claire asked Lane Smith how he got the idea for the Recess book. 📚 “I was really shy in school and didn’t like being called to the front of the class. I wanted to make a read-aloud where everyone joins in together so you can hide among your friends while still having fun."
