January Meeting: Pixton Comics

Although the group didn't love this month's book, Secret Hero Society: Study Hall of Justice, we did have a lot of fun creating our own semi-superhero-inspired comic strips using the awesome online tool, Pixton. There were a few little bugs, mostly related to the browsers we were using, but all in all, the free version of the website allows for so much freedom to really make the comics your own. You can change the characters' facial expressions, body position, and clothing and skin colors. You can zoom in and out with the backgrounds and even flip them upside-down! You can add props and fun sound effects. Check out some of our creative Pixton comics below. Click on an individual comic to view it full-screen.





















Our next meeting will be on Monday, February 6th, and we will be discussing Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life, by Wendy Mass. We will be using Stupeflix to create book trailers. Copies of the book can be picked up at the Children's Room desk. See you next month!
