After visiting hundreds of schools, as well as speaking at the California Reading Association, author Adam Glendon Sidwell is excited to share his interactive and motivating assembly with your school. “The Art of Story” draws on Adam’s experiences as an animator for blockbuster Hollywood films such as Tron and Pirates of the Caribbean. The assembly teaches writing principles such as structure, narrative, and theme; provides real-life writing experiences; and addresses the diverse educational skills required for students to develop their own stories. Using rich visuals from big-name films students know, Adam engages students and reinforces Common Core principles including story structure, moral dilemma and character development, dialogue, theme, description and drawing from experience, writing for an audience, and setting writing goals.

Adam Glendon Sidwell is available for school visits and media appearances. To book a classroom visit, assembly presentation, and/or school book signing, contact schools@futurehousepublishing.com.
