1) I can draw with either my left hand or my right hand.

2) I used to be a singing waiter.

Presentations
Through music, drawing, and a Powerpoint presentation, Barney can demostrate how a book is created. He explores the process and importance of character development. And
with help from a volunteer, Barney will turn a squiggle into a character. Suggestions from the group will add life to this drawing and a story unfolds on the spot. If you've come to see Barney Saltzberg feeling intimidated by the thought of having to draw or write, you will leave with the knowledge that you have the ability to do it too!
