January 27th and 28th, 2003 I was at the Mohansic School in
Yorktown Heights, NY. The first graders were excellent listeners
and had great questions.
Here are two details
of the drawings I did during my visit.
One is colored in
by the children.
Nice job!
In January, 2003 I spent three
days at the Thomas Jefferson School in Yorktown,
NY. The children were very enthusiastic and good
listeners.
On October 23rd, 2002 I visited
the children at the International School of Amsterdam
in Holland. A special thank you to the librarian,
Paula Morris and to all the students who made
my day so enjoyable.
On October 22nd,
2002 I visited the children at the American School of the
Hague in The Netherlands. We had a lot of fun looking at
all the sketches, dummied books and proofs. Here is a picture
of me reading to some of the children. Thank you to Ms.
Kathryn Concannon for arranging my visit. During my trip
to Holland I also spent a day at the International School
of Amsterdam thanks to Ms. Paula Morris. I will post a photograph
of that visit very soon. A special hello to all my friends
in Holland!
