Many of the authors are quite affordable with virtual visits.  And during
World Read Aloud Day--there are tons of opportunities for free.

I think we have to remember that this is their livelihood and they have
been hit hard through the pandemic as well. So these fees are very
reasonable.

I saw you had Kevin Kurtz on your list... I've had him and he's very good
too.

Here's just a few that we will be booking this year:

http://martha-brockenbrough.squarespace.com/school-visits.  (One of this
year's COCBA nominees- scroll to the bottom of her page for prices for
Skypes)

http://www.thisismarciecolleen.com/school-visits.html.  (another Charter
Oak nominee- 15 minute free and $100 for 45 minutes---a bargain)

https://www.nancychurnin.com/new-page-1. Not sure how much, but we had her
for Charter Oak one year and then for GRA and she's fabulous.
