I have six children, Rowan, Felix, Gus, Kit, Arthur and Tabitha. For the past few years, despite a rigorous publishing schedule, I have spent as much time as I can out on the road, giving inspirational talks and fun drawing and pop-up workshops to children (and their parents!) in schools, libraries and literary festivals, from Edinburgh, Cheltenham and Glastonbury. I have worked in the UK, Italy and America, in a great diversity of settings, the more challenging the better! The visits start with the simplest of readings, through explanations of the process of creating and producing a children's book, to drawing workshops and hands on pop-up workshops. I am happy to work with all sizes of groups. I have found working with children with special needs to be particularly rewarding. I am a passionate advocate for the world of children's books and as the years pass, I have become more and more drawn to working with and empowering young children to expand their creativity through this magical world.If you are interested in contacting me, please do so via my website or google plus http://paulstickland.co.ukDo visit my websites, stores and blog:Website - http://paulstickland.co.ukPaul Stickland on google plus - https://plus.google.com/117245054937343378617?rel=authorStores - http://TopZazzle.comI run a blog dedicated to pop up books and paper engineering, papercraft and paperfolding, called Pop Up Paper http://PopUpPaper.blogspot.comAll manner of pop up goodies and links!I use google plus a lot and you can catch up with me there anytime!
