Motivate kids to read, write, and dream!  That is the purpose of my author visits, and I love to teach kids about the entire process of creating a book and all the fun details that go into it.  During my author visits I cover topics like

1.  Where do ideas come from?

2.  From thought to finished product

3.  Now that you have written your book, now what?

 

Kids also get the opportunity to be a part of the writing process with Joanne's newest book, Then What Happened.  This book is a collection of nursery rhymes that finishes what happened next.  Kids are helping to come up with the ideas and kids will be entered into a contest to be a featured illustrator for the book.  

 

Nothing inspires kids more than seeing an author live and in person.  You can book your very own author visit today for an hour, half day, or whole day today.  Go to the signed books tab and click the option that is right for you.
