News & School vists

I love visiting classrooms and taking kids on a virtual field trip "down under the pier." I share photos of my real life inspiration, take students through the process of a first messy draft through revisions, talk about book design and the job of the illustrator, and share my excitement of going on adventures in nature, followed up with a fun virtual field trip exploring under the pier at low tide.

Nell easily engaged my kids and connected with them throughout her visit - which is no easy task when trying to communicate across distance and Zoom. Following her visit, children wrote "Thank You" cards to Nell - one student dictating that her book was "the greatest book I've ever heard in my life!"

Nell was lively and engaging from start to finish. The fact that my 1st graders were attentive the entire time is a testament to the talent and passion of the author.

The kids were totally enthralled while you were reading and were anxious to participate with you during the Q & A section.  They talked about  the book for the rest of the day, so I'd say you were a definite hit!
