Hi all,

Yesterday, we hosted a new author who is also a teacher in Connecticut, Chris Carlone.  He was amazing.  The students were rapt.  Chris is funny and engaging, and since he's a teacher has great management skills.  Being his first-ever visit as an author, we didn't do a whole school assembly and instead opted to host two classes at a time.

Nothing in it for me, but Chris is looking to spread the word about his book and I was impressed with what he had to share and the way he connected with students.  So I figured I would give him a hand and share with all of you.

Here's his info and his write-up if you're interested in learning more:

Christopher S. Carlone is an award-winning Music Educator, Composer and Author. His Young Adult Fantasy Novel, The Fall from Lunathal, is a fun and exciting adventure story that teaches kids that life is a gift worth cherishing and sometimes getting to know people we don’t get along with at first can lead to life-long friendships! Presentations are engaging and interactive for students grades 5-8th and discuss creative writing tips that are sure to get your students excited about reading and writing. 

Students who pre-order prior to the visit can get a signed version of the book for $12. The book is written at a similar reading level as popular novels such as EragonHarry Potter, and The Golden Compass


Thank you for your consideration,
