We have been so lucky to have Diana Neild to share the process she has been through to publish her books; "Piggity-Wiggity-Jiggity Jig" and "Piggity-Wiggity-Jiggity Jig Goes to Dad's Café".
It has taken Diana nearly a year to arrange the publishing. Firstly she had to find a company to publish her book (Scholastics), then the company had to approve the book and after that they found an illustrater to draw the pictures. The illustrater chosen is a man called Philip Webb. Philip had to draw rough sketches of the characters before he drew the real copy.
Today Diana brought in two of Philip's illustrations to show us. They are really detailed.
We are really proud to have an author of our own.

Diana's book sounds really interesting and funny and I can't wait til it comes out
The way the words rhyme is really cool. And I like the illustrations. You can tell who the characters are by their clothes and personalities
It was interesting listening to the steps. It taught us a lot about making a book and how difficult it is.
I like the title because it always rhymes. I like the way she has Piggity-Wiggity-Jiggity Jig.
I think your story is awesome and I like how you have rhyming words in it. your story is the best story that I will ever hear in a million years and thankyou for giving up your time to come and read your fantastic and atractive peices of writting.
Your book is awsome I can't wait to see the rest of them.
I think that your book is very well illastrated and im sure it will sell well.
Diana's book sounds just so rhythmic and makes me want to jump in the book with Piggety-Wiggety and join in!
