MIchelle: Do you have contact info/email/website for her? On Wed, Nov 9, 2022 at 10:16 AM Michelle Frost via Michlib-l < michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:
We just recently had Helen Frost. She is an award winning author. We featured her book, "Monarch and Milkweed". The Migrating Monarch is on the endangered species list. She also brought milkweed seeds and pods to give to the families. Right now is the perfect time to plant the seeds. She lives in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The children and their families loved her. She did a really good job. I highly recommend her.

Jessica (and all other schools/libraries looking for authors);
The Michigan Chapter of the Soc. of Children's book Authors & Illustrators has a LONG list of authors or illustrators who do school visits. You can narrow the search by age of audience, or just do all of Michigan.
Here's the link: https://www.scbwi.org/speakers-bureau/ Many great authors are members: Debbie Diesen, Lis Wheels, Nancy Shaw, Heidi Sheffield, etc., etc.
Keep the list handy and let others know about it.
Thanks! Shutta

Hi,
Our local elementary school reached out to us asking for suggestions for children authors that could come to the elementary school for a program. We would appreciate any suggestions or recommendations for children authors that do school visits.
Thank you!!! Jessica
