Calling all word nerds!
Wordplay works with all types of picture books. From funny stories to lyrical nonfiction, playing with words can be the best part of the writing and reading experience. Our own wordplay warrior, Julie Hedlund, will train us to recognize when we should lean into all the puns, alliteration, and double entendres and when to hold back.
Your purchase includes lifetime access to the original video presentation, a transcript, a handout, and an audio-only file. It's time to play with words in fun and kid-friendly ways!
"Thank you, Julie, I have a much better understanding of wordplay and where/how is works - and doesn't. Great presentation."
