School Visits

I would love to work with your students!

Using my picture books as a springboard, my school presentations and workshops build a literacy connection through art. I share with students the process of illustrating a picture book from start to finish. I share many interesting visuals to hold the student’s interest, make new connections with books and book creators (the author, illustrator, editor, publisher) and to inspire their own creativity.

I customize my presentation for age appropriateness.

“If you are looking for an engaging author visit for your library or school, please consider hosting Jeannie…I highly recommend Jeannie and her program. She was warm, gracious, and very attentive to the children. Her talk was interesting, fun, and informative.”  -Deb Cleveland, Auburn Public Library
