Title: Chronicles of Harris Burdick
Author: Chris Van Allsburg
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin

I had such a blast with the children who joined me for the “Building Stories” workshops – and one of the exercises that sparks the most imaginative responses is when they try to come up with a story surrounding an image from “The Mysteries of Harris Burdick”. Well, here, a whole slew of famous authors do just that – they create a story out of one of the illustrations. It’s quite the read! Make sure you try doing this with your children!
