Le Havre author and illustrator, Nathalie Minne spoke in the class on Tuesday 3 march in order to present his profession.
Ensuite, she made a rabbit and a squirrel as in her last album: “THE AMIVERSARY” in front of the students:
The afternoon, the students shared their impressions with me:
Mardi 3/03/2020: dictation to adults on the presentation of Nathalie Minne's work:
She showed us pages of her books. The big owl Wizard, the stickers on the rope (the garland in the trees).
She made a rabbit and a squirrel.
The rabbit: she made ears, feet, a toddler heart, a hand, a pocket in his coat, trousers, the eyes. Eyes with pencil and glue, a flower ; the head too.
The squirrel: she queued. She put the glue, before she cut out. She put the shoes on with her feet on, legs, les mains, head with horns. After the eyes, the nose, cheeks, the mouth, the nose, the body: like a coat. She made the earth with a pencil, a heart too.
On illustrations and books:
les biscornus, they are afraid of the dark because there are bat shadows like Batman. Il y a un cerf qui vole dans le brouillard. La grenouille avec le cerf, elle ressemble à Gluglu des Pyjamasque. On a vu un loup, des loups. Avec les loups, il y avait un biscornu; sinon les biscornus ils auraient peur que les loups les mangent. La cigogne, elle a peur que le loup la mange.
C’était bien. Je ne le connaissais pas.
Qui est Nathalie Minne : elle écrit des livres et fait des dessins : c’est une illustratrice.
