We hosted Jeanne Zulick Ferroulo a few years ago, and she was great! This year, I've invited Michelle A. Barry, from CT also. Another lovely CT author is Nancy Tandon. All three women charge reasonable fees:)

We are looking into local author, Jake Burt.  Will follow this discussion.  Thanks.

I don't recall her exact fee, but Jeanne Zulick Ferruolo came to our school in May of 2024. She is from CT, has great books, and she was engaging and charged a reasonable price. I would have her back if I could.

Has anyone hosted an author visit (in-person or virtual) for middle school that was relatively inexpensive? Maybe around $1k? Local authors would be a plus! _______________________________________________
