Imagine

Your students are excited to meet their favorite author who is coming to your school to visit. There is a buzz in the school. The students are enthusiastic, engaged, and curious when the author arrives. During the visit, they ask questions and learn more about the art of writing a story. Students who pre-ordered books are able to have them personalized and signed by the author. 

The buzz lasts for weeks, as students are now more excited to read, write, and borrow books from the library. Months after the visit, students are still talking about the author’s visit.
