We grown-up cartoonists think we know what kids are and aren't picking up on in our work. After all, we were kids once! But memory can be fickle testimony, so in the next Comics Are Great! I'll be joined by 12-year-old cartoonist Connor to talk about what he perceives to be the anatomy of a good story for kids.
I'll also be joined by +Gregg Schigiel, creator of PIX: One Weirdest Weekend (http://pixcomic.com/), artist on Spongebob Comics, and host of the Stuff Said podcast (http://ift.tt/1eQSMpR).
If you haven't seen Gregg and Connor in action, they led some events at the 2014 Kids Read Comics festival in Ann Arbor, MI. You can see their banter during the Kids Comics Award show held that weekend here: http://goo.gl/SRvzPj
This promises to be a fun one! You can tune in and comment via the Hangout event page, or watch on YouTube at http://ift.tt/133lopb
