Hi - 
We had a different experience with Jerry Pallotta in January...maybe he was just having an off day.  Feel free to contact me off-list if you are considering having him.

Hi Denise,

We also have hosted David Biedrzycki and he is amazing.  Additionally, we have had:

Brian Lies - sees each grade level separately and stays all day, very engaging
Andrea Davis Pinkney - inspiring and so warmhearted
Lauren Tarshis - inspiring to writers and gives a sneak peek at her newest book coming out
Jarret Krosoczka - great writing tips, graphic novels
Jerry Pallotta - one of the rare nonfiction authors that does school visits and is highly engaging
Janet Wong - lesser-known books, but HIGHLY engaging and gives out a ton of free books
Janet Lawler - local, many different picture books

We are hosting Grace Lin, Peter Brown, and Dana Meacham Rau this year, so I can report back.  

Let me know if you have any questions or need more information.
Jessica

Good afternoon everyone! We have been given money to book an author for the 2019-20 school year. We have a few possibilities but I wanted to see who other elementary schools have had and would recommend. We had David Biedrzycki this year and he was fabulous with all levels preK-5!!!

Thank you 😊
