School Author Visits

In-person and virtual author visits

I love talking with kids about the creative process of writing, art, and most of all - revision! I am available for  virtual and in-person classroom visits.
The third graders loved thinking about issues important to them, and ways that they can make a difference in their communities and the world. I think hearing about young activists inspired them!”     - Third grade classroom teacher, RI

“I often feel inspired by our students but for me the synergy of the way that your workshop connected with the mission of our school and other activist explorations throughout our classrooms and curriculum was tangible.”  - Elementary school librarian, RI

“My students really enjoyed your book, especially my girls! …They really loved how you said that you don't have to be from the past to make history, the fact that history is being made now was an impactful message. Thank you for inspiring great conversation among my students!”  – Fifth grade teacher, M
