I have used the comic option in the paid version of Book Creator to give this a go.
Main characters – little plastic calf for Thumper; Jessie, the horse, Rex and Mr Potato Head from the original Toy Story.
Setting – Toy farm buildings, a wooden rainbow, a broken Lego millennium falcon and a wooden safari set.
I tinkered, debugged and persevered with what I had until I came up with a simple storyline. I tried not to be distracted with making superhero accessories.
I quickly drew super pants and stuck them on with double sided tape. I used a pipe cleaner for super horns – job done!
It was great fun!
Have a go!
Your sway comic strip is amazing me and Anna loved reading it, I will try and make one but I don’t think it will be as good as yours. Love Anna and Kate
Thank you Kate, that is so kind. You can do it! Have a wonderful holiday!
