Although I am in the middle school / high school, I wanted to share with you
an author visit that we recently had at our school AND an additional
presentation that I saw today with author Susan Stevens Crummel (author of
"Cook -A-Doodle-Do", "And the Dish Ran Away with the Spoon", and
"Jackalope").
Susan is a wonderful speaker for both elementary students AND adults. She
is entertaining, amusing, and very "spunky" in her presentation. The kids
at our school LOVE Susan's interaction with them and today I watched as
Susan performed for a group of independent school librarians at the AISL
conference in Dallas / Fort Worth. She is wonderful.
If you're looking for a fantastic author who is energetic,
enthusiastic---and a former teacher (math)-turned author (so she knows what
you're going through) performer, Susan's the one! Her performance
information is listed on her website, including the cost for her visits
(very reasonable!).
Her website is: http://www.susanstevenscrummel.com/index.htm
(And yes, her sister is illustrator Janet Stevens....author / illustrator of
"Tops and Bottoms"--Caldecott Honor book).
If you're interested in booking Susan, you can contact her through her
website. Let her know that the librarians from Trinity Valley School sent
you....she has become one of our "favorite" repeat performance authors~
Have fun!
