Ben Clanton, the best-selling author and illustrator of the Narwhal and Jelly book series, stopped by McKinley Elementary to talk to students about creating interesting characters and writing books. The visit was in partnership with the Tulsa City-County Library, as they celebrate the 20th Anniversary of their Books to Treasure program. The students had a great time and even got a preview of Ben's upcoming work! Check out photos of the visit in the slideshow below.
