‘Tis the season for… CHRISTMAS STORY TIME WITH THE AUTHOR!!!! One of my favorite parts of Christmas is making GOODNIGHT, MANGER author visits at local preschools and churches, but with this pandemic and all, I’m missing my usual busy line-up! That has given me a wonderful idea.
From now through Christmas, I am offering free 15-minute GOODNIGHT, MANGER author visits to TEN special groups – ideal for preschools, church ministries, homeschool coops and more. These can be in–person or VIRTUAL which means I can visit near or far!
If you are interested, reach out to me via the contact tab in the About section.
IMPORTANT DETAILS:
For each FREE 15-minute GOODNIGHT, MANGER visit I will:
- I introduce the story with the help of Rooster, my puppet.
- I engage the children in an interactive reading.
- Ponder together who the real give of Christmas is — Jesus!
- Close by singing a lullaby to Baby Jesus.
BONUS: Here’s a coloring page plus a whole host of follow-up activities to extend the fun after reading the book together.
REQUEST: The visit is free, but I respectfully request that you purchase a copy the book for your class library and let families know that they can purchase copies as well. I do not sell my own books, but they are available through the major online vendors as well as your favorite local indie book stores. To help spread word to families, I can provide an order form for schools/groups to collect and order as a group from the vendor of your choosing. Or you can simply let families know that they can purchase books on their own by providing a link to the local or online vendor of your choice. Either way, be sure keep a list of first names for book inscriptions and, as a thank you, I will provide a signed and personalized book plate for each book purchased!
I look forward to spreading Christmas joy in this special way.
This offer is good through January 1, 2021.
Joy to you!
