BaSICS librarian: Julia Daniels<br />

ISS Lower <strong>School</strong> librarian: Betty Turpin<br />

Book Week<br />

Left: Marcia Williams showed<br />

students the many drafts and<br />

prints that a book goes through<br />

before it is printed.<br />

Mrs. Turpin and Mrs. Daniels made it<br />

possible for ISS and BaSICS to have<br />

author and illustrator, Marcia Williams,<br />

visit both of school’s campuses.<br />

Marcia Williams has written and<br />

illustrated many books, such as<br />

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, and<br />

Charles Dicken’s Oliver Twist. She uses a<br />

distinctive cartoon-strip style which<br />

engages young and old readers alike.<br />

During the week of March 28, BaSICS<br />

teachers rotated to different<br />

classrooms each morning to read one<br />

of Marcia Williams’ stories with a class.<br />

On Friday, April 1, Marcia Williams<br />

visited our school and held two<br />

workshops with our staff and students.<br />

We were fascinated by her creativity<br />

and ability to retell these classic stories<br />

in a unique way.<br />

Williams stories with different classes<br />

during Book Week.
