Due Today:
Pick a Shel Silverstein poem to make an Illustration off of.
Plenty are online if you were not present in class.
Make a Word Web.
Check out the example below. You will use your poem. You do not have to write the full poem in. Just the title will do. I only put the full poem, so you could understand my thinking.

Children's Book Hand Out by AlissaSpiehs-Apel on Scribd
Student Examples:
"It is also more fun for the parent, teacher, or babysitter, who has to read and reread these books over and over. I try to put as much fun and action as possible into each book so that the reader may find something new each time it is read." - Richard Scarry
"I believe that the only differences between children and adults are life experience, wealth of associations and a child's dependency on an adult. I respect and hold in the highest regard children's sense of judgment”. - Alona Frankel
Or/Not Both
The Podcast Dani Jones is Due Next Week - Week 12. You can listen to it here.
*Note text will be done on the computer. Not on the actual illustration.
Pro Examples:
"I was so luck to that I didn't have anyone to copy, be impressed by, I had developed my own style, I was creating before I knew there was any famous poets out there. I never saw their work until i was around thirty." - Shel Silverstein
In 1960 Bennett Cerf bet Geisel $50 that he couldn't write an entire book using only 50 words. The result was Green Eggs and Ham. We have been led to believe that Cerf never paid the $50.
The moon in Sendak's books represent his mother looking down at him. He was a sickly child.
