Author Visits
Sheryl with three young readers

I love to visit schools, share my books, and do writing workshops. Young author conferences are my favorites.


I can provide a power point presentation about my books and my writing process. It can be geared to any elementary grade level. I especially like sharing my dinosaur books with the younger kids. I will do up to three sessions a day.



A few of my workshop titles:

 

DIGGING UP THE BONES

 

PLANTING A PICTURE BOOK

 

THE FUN OF NON-FICTION
