In the last workshop of the K-publishing program, Kids’ Own Artist Viet-My Bui and Julie Choi will support participants to put the final touches on their collaboratively authored book.
The book has gone to the designer and we have a draft proof to share!
Participants will review the draft proof of their book and collate a list of instructions for the designer. The title, blurb, and story text will be finalised by the young authors, who will have created a completely unique, Australian kids’ Korean story!
This 8-week program is reaching its conclusion: the book is nearly ready to launch! After this final workshop, the book will be printed in readiness for the public book launch on the 25th of July.
K-Publishing: Reviewing Our Book is presented in partnership with the Immigration Museum with support from the Australian Government and The University of Melbourne.
