Visiting Classrooms - Reading & Dressing as a character
Before my own books were published, I loved being the storyteller at my kids' school. It was fun to dress as a character or wear a funny hat or something to grab the students' attention. A short, five-minute picture book was perfect to read to grades K through 6, and sometimes even to the 7th and 8th grades if I thought it would work for that age.
Cajun Night Before Christmas by Trosclari
Kids of all ages get the biggest kick out of this picture book. It was a hit with middle schoolers and teachers, too. I also read it at the family get-together on Christmas Eve. Reading aloud at schools is super rewarding.
I enjoy reading excerpts from my own books these days but it's also fun to read other books and short stories at school visits. Kids vary in the types of stories they prefer, but usually a humorous tale appeals to the majority.
