Bookelicious offers Virtual Visits for authors on set days. Their pricing is awesome. I just signed up for Gordon Korman in December specifically for 6th graders. 

Positives: Online and with cost you receive books (I think 5 copies) $150 for the hour. Live author, easily fits into a school day

Negatives: The date is set so there is no wiggle room for date selection

Good Morning,

I am a middle school LMS in Bristol. I am planning an author visit for December 2025. 

Could anyone recommend a local middle school grade author who you've recently hosted at your school for an author visit? 

Also, if you could give me a rough idea of how much the author charged for the visit, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the information.
