There is nothing like presenting to a room full of children in a school. It's our shining moment as authors to latch onto our "fifteen" minutes or forty-five or fifty-five minutes of fame and the best part of being a writer of children's books. <br /><br />Your suggestions to authors doing school visits are "right on." <br /><br />Congratulations and much success to you as you share your wonderful book with students.
