Greg Watkins, Author & Illustrator Drawing, telling stories, and mischief were Greg’s defenses against bullying, abuse, and dyslexia. The Marines taught him that being different is okay and education is necessary. By selling his paintings and coping with his learning problems, he earned his degree in interior architectural design. Later, a car wreck broke his back, ending his residential building career and reviving his dream to write and illustrate books for children. Greg’s presentation includes telling stories, talking about bullying and sticking up for little guys, drawing with students, asking their input on his books in progress, and answering their questions. His books: A Big Beaked, Big Bellied Bird Named Bill ($13.95) and Brendon Mouse’s Big Idea to Save the Bad Bird Bunch ($14.99).
