TESTIMONIALS

LISA L.

I loved everything about the visit for the younger kids. It was engaging and fun. A lot of the assemblies are hard for the younger kids to sit through. The students were given the opportunity to engage and not just listen. They had a great time.

Ms. Patti gave an amazing presentation! You can tell she is passionate about children's literacy. I love how she made her presentation educational and personal! I can't wait to read Down South for the Summer again!  This was the best author visit I've seen as a teacher!
