This week in Creativity Corner, Terry Shay is talking creativity with award-winning authors and illustrators to inspire you to dream big for your International Dot Day celebration!

The idea behind International Dot Day (#InternationalDotDay) is to foster creativity by encouraging people to make dots. The day was inspired by THE DOT by Peter H. Reynolds. Since the day was started with creativity and children’s literature, I wanted to learn what other KidLit creators thought about creativity. I gathered some of my favorite authors and illustrators to ask their thoughts.
