Refe Tuma is the author of 5 books for children, selling over 300K copies worldwide and receiving multiple awards, including the Bank Street College Best Books of the Year With Honors. Based in the greater Chicagoland area, has spoken at schools and festivals from Oslo, Norway, to the Lincoln Center in New York. Treat your 3-6 graders to a crash course in storytelling (and a little mad science) with 'Heroes, Villains, and the Physics of Storytelling,' as Refe inspires them to craft compelling stories in books, games, songs—even every day conversation. Grades K-2 hear Refe share the wild true-ish story of Dinovember—the month plastic dinosaurs come to life—and read his hit picture book What the Dinosaurs Did Last Night. Add incredible behind-the-scenes photos and it's a jam-packed celebration of creativity. For extra inspiration, Refe now offers interactive workshops for classrooms or the entire school, with 'Storytelling On (and Off!) the Page,' and 'Build-a-Villain.'
