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.
