SCHOOL AND LIBRARY VISITS

Barbara visits schools and libraries to read her books, present lessons about the animals in her books, and facilitate writing activities.


We are all learning new ways of coping with COVID-19 through social distancing, working from home, and learning virtually. I’m developing new ways to read my books to children, create fun crafts, and present writing activities through my YouTube channel. Also watch for informative newsletters and special book sales from me. Please stay safe and healthy.

She also organizes Author Fairs and participates in Parent Nights.

She has taught everything from Bible study to 4 year olds, to accounting to adults. Her expertise is in English, grammar, writing, and speech.

Barbara researches the wildlife in her books and shares facts, sounds, and videos with a PowerPoint presentation.

SCHOOL AND LIBRARY VISIT TESTIMONIALS

  • “Thank you SO much for coordinating Author Day! The kids had a blast as did I!”
  • “We are so thankful that we were able to have this time to hear different ways authors create their books!”
  • “I even learned about some great activities that I’d love to try with my kids!”
  • “Amazing day!”
  • “It was wonderful! I was so impressed with all the notes my students took and questions they asked. They were writing all day!”
  • “I was pleased that our school valued writing to the extent that they allowed me to plan a full day of guest authors who shared their craft with the students. We had 7 authors who presented 4 lessons to different age groups. There were 2 sessions in the morning and 2 sessions after lunch. Each author presented a different topic that would give students a special take away they could use in their work. The generosity of the authors was amazing! They did not ask for anything except a chance to sell their books to the students.”
