On Monday, March 1st, I had the pleasure to accompany Ms. Kelly and represent Pembroke Kids and the DDC at the Cleveland Museum of Art’s mini-conference Picture This: Storytelling and the Arts. The mini-conference was developed for early childhood educators to learn how to help students grow up great through the art of telling stories in pictures, song, rhythm and acting. Celebrated children’s picture book author and illustrator Denise Fleming presented a key note session, followed by educator-led sessions in the art galleries on bringing everyday stories to life. Denise Fleming’s books have received many awards for her colorful pulp paintings and lively prose, including the Caldecott Honor for In the Small, Small Pond.
