It's lovely to see schools taking out the term with a bang. Templeton Primary School recently had Corinne Fenton on board to take them through the intriguing process of writing picture books. Looks like there are plenty of budding authors and illustrators in Templeton!

Kylie Dunstan - 40 Second Friday
Today's #40SecondFriday is the brilliant author and illustrator Kylie Dunstan!
Kylie creates beautiful picture books, exploring themes of diversity and friendships across cultures. Her book "Collecting Colour" won Book of the Year in 2009. When she visits schools, Kylie runs wonderful hands on sessions, inspiring students with her artistic processes.
Kylie's talented daughter, Camille Allen, has shot this extra special video that we are so excited to share with you all.
You can check out Camille's blog at urbanarcade.wordpress.com
Thank you Kylie and Camille for this gorgeous insight!
Michael Wagner - 40SecondFriday

Welcome to our brand new project: 40SecondFriday! Every Friday we will give you a little window into the studio of one of our brilliant authors, illustrators and thinkers, so you can see what they are working on today. Our first cab off the rank is the wonderful illustrator and author Sue deGennaro. We love sending Sue out to schools, as we always get to hear how inspired the students are after spending time with her. Thank you Sue, for giving us this snippet of your creative life! #40SecondFriday
At Booked Out, we connect artists and academics with schools and other organisations across Australia
