“Working with J. B. Cantwell was an incredible experience! She was organized and prepared and kept the students engaged from the moment she started to the very end. I highly recommend having her visit.”

“Our visit with J. B. Cantwell was great! The students learned about the different parts of a story and how to write down their ideas for each part before writing the story. The students enjoyed their time creating a story with her!”

FULL DAY
When you book me for a visit to your school, you get me BELL-TO-BELL!
KEEP ME BUSY!
During my visit with you, you can book as many 30-45 minute assemblies and/or classroom workshop visits as suits your space and schedule. You’ve got me for the entire day, including student lunches, book signings, and classroom drop-ins. Put me to work!
EASY
Classroom workshops don’t need anything extra from teachers other than a spot on the board where I can write details as our story progresses. Assemblies require the standard projector, view screen, and microphone setup.
WORKSHEETS FOR ALL STUDENTS, AND STICKERS!
Classroom visits receive a free, fun, take-home worksheet that is ELA aligned, and EVERYONE gets a sticker! Worksheets are available for all students in the school regardless of whether they have a classroom visit or not.
TEACHER GUIDES
Free black and white printable PDF of “Go Write a Book!” for ages 6-8 and 9-12 for use in your classes!
EASY OPTIONAL ORDERING
Books can be ordered through my website to be signed and delivered on the day of my visit. Parents will be provided with a school link to order online in advance. A custom ordering link for your school will be provided. No messy order forms to wrangle!
AFFORDABLE
Some presenters charge $2,000, $3,000, even $5,000 per day. Most schools don’t have the funds to keep up with that! My rates are reasonable and give you the best value for your budget, bell-to-bell!
