A brand-new webinar from award-winning author Julie Hedlund created especially for picture book writers and illustrators who want to write humorous stories for kids!
November 19th at 8pm ET/5pm PT
If you want kids to get the giggles when reading your funny picture book, you need a unique stew of surprise, subtext, timing, and illustrations (even if you're not an illustrator). With ample examples from recently published picture books, we will both analyze humor AND keep the frog alive.
Attendees will also receive a handout with an overview of 7 types of funny picture books and a 90-day replay period!
Julie Hedlund is an award-winning picture book author. Her titles include SONG AFTER SONG: The Musical Life of Julie Andrews, OVER, BEAR! UNDER, WHERE?, MY LOVE FOR YOU IS THE SUN, and A TROOP IS A GROUP OF MONKEYS. Her work explores themes of family, friendship, and the beauty of the natural world.
In addition to writing her own books, Julie helps fellow authors achieve their publishing dreams in her role as Founder of The 12 x 12 Picture Book Writing Challenge, co-Founder of The Complete Picture Book Submissions System, and a co-Founder of Picture Book Summit.
When not reading or writing, you can find Julie hiking the hills with her dog Pepper near her home in beautiful Boulder, CO, spending time with her now-grown children, or satisfying her wanderlust by traveling (especially to Italy). Find out more about Julie at juliehedlund.com and follow her on Instagram, X/Twitter & TikTok (@juliefhedlund).
Then let's get started on November 19th!
Normally, private coaching with Julie is $300/hour, but she'll spill the beans on what you need to know about writing humorous picture books for kids for
just $35!
All attendees will receive a handout and 90-day access to the replay!
