Aunt Ludivine: Bhartia and Pixton Comics

aunt ludivine: Adya Bhartia, 9, decided to interview a close family friend who she calls Aunt Ludivine, and made her comic about the process of the assignment coming together, but Bhartia didn't see the project as work, according to CTV. It was more like a fun time I had on my hands, interviewing people and I love making Pixton comics and I like writing stuff, Bhartia told CTV News Toronto Tuesday. The Grade 3 students at Jackman Avenue Junior Public School gathered the stories through personal interviews, then wrote the scripts and designed the comics' backgrounds and avatars using a program called Pixton. Bhartia says the project was a learning experience and discovered she had some similarities to her subject, because she too is an immigrant. The people who are really polite, try and help you. My favourite thing about Canada was the really kind people. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
