The Mask


© Ken Wilson-Max 2011

Masks have been worn for both ceremonial and practical purposes for as long as man has had a creative brain. They are usually worn on the face during storytelling and dancing.
A mask is a great device or prop for role-playing games and can help shy children to take part and enjoy the activity as much as everyone else. Here are fours to look at, out of an eventual six. When they are finished we’ll make them available to download. With Carnival season coming up in February they could make for a really fun lesson, or game at home.

I am a children's book illustrator and author. I trained as a graphic designer, and have worked in publishing for over thirty years. Nowadays I work at Harper Collins running an inclusive global imprint called Kumusha Books. I still write and illustrate children's books though and enjoy every minute immersed in publishing!
