Join us to learn how award winning children's writer Christopher Cheng got started writing picture books and how he keeps going. There will be time for some questions and a short practical exercise. Christopher Cheng wrote the critically acclaimed, multi published picture book ‘Bear and Rat’ (published in the USA as ‘Will We Always Hold Hands?’), a loving tribute to his wife that Kirkus Reviews says is simultaneously quietly soothing yet deeply empowering—a friendship tale for the ages. His recent titles include the picture books Powerful Like a Dragon, Dragon Folding, Quoll, Pollination, the Imagineer and Old Fellow. A number of his titles are also republished in China.
