For over three decades, the classic Magic Beach has been one of Australian's favourite children's books. Magic Beach was entirely created by Alison Lester, who not only wrote the story, but also illustrated every scene. Alison teaches us the step by step of her illustrating process, so that you too can create your own Magic Beach inspired scenes. 🏖 Magic Beach is playing at the Playhouse until January 21st.

We're doing a very cool thing, and asking kids to interview Alison Lester instead of us! Their question to Alison Lester can be about anything - her books My Farm, Imagine or Magic Beach, her characters, how to be a writer or illustrator, or literally anything at all – ask away! Go here to put you question to Alison: https://gu.com/p/e7t2y/au | Guardian Australia
