Scheduling and Preparing for a School Visit
What you need to do to schedule and prepare for me to visit your school
Scheduling me to visit your school
To schedule me to visit your school, simply contact me by e-mail at Ken@Bravemonster.com, letting me know the desired visit date, time, presentation topics, school location, contact information, and any other applicable information.
Preparing for my school visit
Get the students excited
To help the students get the most out of my school visit, introduce students to my book during class time a few days or weeks before the visit. Also, ensure that you have plenty of copies of BRAVE LITTLE MONSTER in your school library.
Ordering Books
You can order BRAVE LITTLE MONSTER either from a local bookstore, book wholesaler used by your school, or directly from HarperCollins. HarperCollins will give you a 40% discount on the trade version of BRAVE LITTLE MONSTER in conjunction with my visit to your school. To order directly from HarperCollins, call their customer service at (800) 242-7737 and be sure to let them know that it is for an author appearance so you can get the discount. Plan on 4-6 weeks for delivery.
Book signings
I'm happy to do a book signing in conjunction with my visit to your school. Just be sure to order enough copies of BRAVE LITTLE MONSTER for those students and teachers who will want to buy books. It works best if you find out well in advance of my visit how many students and teachers want books so you can know how many to order. It's always a good idea to order a few extras for those students who decide at the last minute that they want to buy a book and have it signed.
