World Building at the Library | Ages: 9-13

Do you know how to create a satisfying system of magic in a fantasy world? Do you love books that include dictionaries of their own fictional languages? Do you daydream about space shuttles charting planetary constellations? In this camp, we will explore how to build worlds that live, breathe, and spark off the page! Participants will construct the scaffolding of a fictional world, which could include a map, “rules,” characters, illustrations, and the beginnings of stories. We will journey through the library to enhance our dreams with new knowledge of faraway places.
