How fortunate we
are to be
living in the twenty first century, when it's as easy as the click of a
mouse to find authors and illustrators who visit libraries and
schools!
And the job is made even easier by the many websites that compile lists
of bookpeople who present to groups of children. Look at the
sites
here for just the right person for your author or illustrator
visit. Another
great
place
for
information
about authors and illustrators who visit schools is my
book, Terrific
Connections with Authors, Illustrators, and Storytellers: Real Space
and
Virtual Links, co-authored with Jane
Kurtz.
