OWL & PENGUIN: MAKING EARLY READERS – Join us as Author-illustrator Vikram Madan goes behind the scenes of his Geisel-Honor-winning beginner-comic/early-reader series Owl & Penguin to share his creative process and insights about making early readers via Zoom on Monday, December 2 from 7:00-8:00pm (CST).
Meet the Instructor
Vikram Madan grew up in India where; despite spending his childhood rhyming and doodling, he ended up an engineer. Many years later, he abandoned his tech career to follow his heart and is now the author/illustrator of over a dozen books for kids, including the Geisel-Honor-winning OWL & PENGUIN series, the acclaimed funny poetry collections BEWARE THE DRAGON AND THE NOZZLEWOCK, A HATFUL OF DRAGONS, THE BUBBLE COLLECTOR, and LORD OF THE BUBBLES, the graphic-novel-in-rhyme series ZOONI TALES, and the early reader chapter series BOBO & PUP-PUP. His books have been honored by Kirkus Reviews, American Library Association, Junior Library Guild, New York Public Library, Bank Street College of Education, School Library Journal, and others, and have appeared on multiple Best Books of the Year lists.
