Each year, author Lisa Funari Willever visits 60-70 schools across the United States and abroad inspiring and motivating students from Kindergarten through 8th grade. These visits are informative, entertaining, and interactive and because Lisa is a former teacher who once booked authors, they are extremely easy to plan.
Once a date is selected, a School Author Visit packet, as well as a full set of books will be donated to the school.
Tips for planning a memorable event
1. If you are looking for a specific date, reserve a date for your school early. Dates are reserved on a first-come basis.
2. Once a date is selected, share some of the books with students.
3. When planning the day's schedule, keep in mind that the presentation is very energetic and allow travel time.
4. To build excitement, have students re-illustrate some of the stories to decorate the halls.
5. Distribute book order forms approximately 3 weeks prior to the visit. One week before the visit, simply mail all order slips to Lisa Funari Willever. Books will arrive on the day of the visit, signed and grouped by teacher.
6. Have students write some questions on index cards.
7. After the visit, distribute the order forms for those staff and students who still wish to order signed copies. Mail the slips, as with the first order, and books will be signed and sent FREE SHIPPING.
8. Once everything is planned, enjoy the day. Lisa is a professional speaker and wants you to enjoy the day, too!
