Childhood is surreal. Why shouldn’t children’s books be? In this whimsical, entertaining talk, award-winning author Mac Barnett speaks about writing that escapes the page, art as a doorway to wonder — and what real kids say to a fictional whale.
This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxSonomaCounty, an independent event. TED’s editors chose to feature it on the ted.com website.
