Stu Duval visits Balmac
By Beth Downie | Posted: Wednesday October 28, 2015
The Year 7 team were lucky to have a well known author, illustrator and storyteller visit Balmac. Read Inez' review below.
On the 14th of October, Stu Duval came to Balmacewen School. He is famous for his fantastic storytelling, so we were very lucky to have him.
Before he told us a story, he first drew a picture to set the scene, with what must have been 'his' type of music playing softly in the background. It only took 'seconds' until the art was finished and faces lit with fascination. He then dusted his hands and changed the music to a soundtrack. Then, he told the story.
It was amazing how he kept the audience held for the whole hour it took. The story was Rat Island, and I am definitely going to read the book.
