Description
Robyn has earned the right to choose the destination of the next class trip and she has decided that it should be the art gallery. Not one of her friends and classmates thinks this is a good idea, but Robyn isn't willing to change her mind. She has her reasons for wanting to go to the art gallery, and she is determined to have her own way at any cost.
Hazel Hutchins lives in Alberta and has published many children's books. This is the 6th book in the Robyn series.
About the authors
Hazel Hutckins est l'auteure de plus de 30 livres pour enfants, y compris l'album illustré primé Mattland, une œuvre qui est aussi illustrée par Duan Petricic. Hazel vit à Canmore, en Alberta.
After many years of juggling writing, raising her children, and making a home with her now deceased husband, Hazel spends her days writing full time. Winner of Writer's Guild of Alberta Award for Children's Literature, she has written children's short fiction for Chirp, Chickadee, and Cricket.
When answering where the inspiration for A Second is a Hiccup came from, Hazel comments, "I decided to see if I could find other ways to describe time. When the writing began to flow in poetic form - and when I came up with the engaging title line A Second is a Hiccup - I knew I had begun a labor of love. The book went through many incarnations....in one version I actually brought in centuries and eons! Good grief! But it finally returned to exactly what it should be...immediate, simple and close-to-home. It is my sincere hope that children of all types will enjoy finding and celebrating, among the pages, the many ways they spend their time."
YVONNE CATHCART is an illustrator living in Toronto with her husband and son. She has illustrated many children\s books and also paints and makes animal sculptures and puppets.'
