CLMC students--Join us in Vancouver, June 20-July 2, 2022, for the second Vancouver International Summer School in Children's Literature. Don't worry, the weather will be a lot better than it was yesterday!

@EvelynArizpe Yes! Also mildly poisonous and hallucinogenic. Anthony Browne seems fond of them (for pictures, at least). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_m…

This is just a friendly reminder to all our summer school attendees that recordings of keynotes, panels, and workshops are still available on the Canvas site--but only until the end of the month.

@RRaiswell @davidfrum Or this. The homeopathy part is a minute in. youtube.com/watch?v=RFO6Zh…

"All natural."

Thank you, everyone!

Thanks to our final two presenters: @AnitaMiettunen for her writer's talk, "All About Science and Nature: Creating Children's Nonfiction Picture Books," and @sammymarie for her workshop, "Indigenous Poetic Aesthetics: Exploring Worlds With Words." That's it for this year!

Thank you also to @lesleanewman, @NicolaCampbel20, and Sarah Leavitt for their creative workshops. Come back tomorrow for our final events and to find out about next year!

Wrapping up Day 5 of the @IntMastCLMC Vancouver International Summer School in Children's Literature with a writer's talk and reading by apihtaw’kos’an poet Samantha Nock @sammymarie (right). Thanks, Sam, and thanks to Karlene Harvey for moderating!

A hunt for elusive #bannock inspired @Dallas_Hunt to write 'Awâsis and the World-Famous Bannock', a children’s book celebrating Cree #language revitalization. Read about how the book steeps Cree children and adults in nêhiyawêwin: bit.ly/379ckXX @ubc_english @UBC_Arts

... we headed to the West Coast to practice our translation skills with Geneviève Brisson (@Souslechapeau) before rounding out the day with Sarah Leavitt's artist/writer's talk on graphic memoirs. Come back on Friday for more!

We began day 4 in Cambridge taking a workshop on comics from Joe Sutliff Sanders. Then we joined JonArno Lawson in Toronto to write some poetry before getting advice on publishing research from @richflynn, Karin Westman (@westmank), Lauren Bosc, and Mark West. And then....

How international is the first @IntMastCLMC Vancouver International Summer School in Children's Literature?
