My School Visit Program
If you are looking for a children's book author/illustrator to visit your school, you've come to the right place. Here's a little information to get you started.
About Me
As an elementary art teacher, I fully understand the importance of reading in a child's education. My book, Just Line Around, was written primarily to act as a teaching aid in my own classroom. While visiting your school, I would love the opportunity to reinforce reading, writing, and creativity with your students.
What I Do
My presentation is very relaxed and is adaptable to the needs of your students. In the past, I have done everything from large-group book reading to small group sessions with mini art/writing lessons. Regardless of the format, the focus of my visit will be to encourage creativity, to bolstor positive self-esteem, and to reinforce the importance of reading with your students.
Additionally, I also host an art contest on my blog for your students. The students create some simple line drawings inspired by my book and can win some great art supplies! For more information or to view some samples, please visit my blog.
About My Book
Just Line Around follows the adventures of Stew, an ordinary horizontal line, as he discovers that there is more to life than simply lying flat. He jumps, hops, and swirls his way toward becoming a masterpiece. In the end, though, he decides that although trying new thins can be fun, he will always be happiest
just being himself. To view the latest book trailer for Just Line Around, please click here. To read a sample of the book, click here.
The Best Part
If you live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, there is NO COST to you or your school for my visit. All I ask is for the opportunity to sell copies of my book and support from you with some simple, pre-visit promotion. If you live outside of the DFW area, please contact me for pricing, which is usually limited to travelling expenses.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I can't wait to meet you and your students!
Sincerely,
Kinsy
