Author Visits
Christine is an experienced presenter and loves working with K-8 students virtually or in-person.
It was wonderful to have Christine meet with my students and chat with them about what it's like to be a children's book author. They were excited to meet the author that wrote "Evelyn the Adventurous Entomologist" , a book that they are familiar with! We really enjoyed her presentation and the students are really inspired to write their nonfiction children's books - Kari Emerson, 7th grade ELA teacher, Miller Middle School, California
We're ordering a bunch of your books for our library! We appreciate your time and how excellent you were explaining your job/passion to the kids. - Sarah Pifer, 4th grade, Manzanita Elementary, Arizona
