Ready Set Draw! Lori Hanson Draws a Corgi
Illustrator Lori Hanson teaches us how to draw a Corgi from Bubblegum Princess at the KidLit TV Children’s Book Weekend on Governors Island!
We taped this episode of Ready Set Draw! on location at the military installation on Governors Island known collectively as Fort Columbus! In 1878, officers’ families started to move in, and resources, such as a movie theater, a YMCA, “officer’s club,” public school, and three chapels, were built. This house is located next to the Admirals House in Nolan Park and was built in the late 1800s!
We’d love to add your artwork to the Ready Set Draw Art Gallery!

ABOUT THE BOOK
A modern day fairy tale inspired by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Young lady Katy delights in blowing bubblegum bubbles, a decidedly unladylike habit. Despite opposition, she teaches the kingdom to love bubblegum bubbles as much as she does. Katy, a lively, intelligent, and strong willed heroine, embarks on an adventure filled with royals, the queen’s favorite dogs: corgis, and tons of bubblegum. A disclaimer worthy of note: Neither HRH Queen Elizabeth II, her corgis, nor any individual associated with the British Royal Family has authorized, sponsored, or otherwise approved of this thoroughly, totally, utterly, and quite unequivocally unauthorized book.
ABOUT GOVERNORS ISLAND
Governors Island is in New York, only minutes away from lower Manhattan and Brooklyn! You and your family can go to Governors Island by catching a ferry this summer.
