Storytelling and Art Projects

Contact me to arrange an interactive storytelling experience. Using the "Whole Book" approach, developed by Megan Lambert of the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, I introduce picture books as an artform to children in a fun, playful way. I'm happy to add an art session to deepen the experience even further.

Fundraising events. Earn a significant return in either cash or books while fundraising in a manner consistent with your educational mission. Our books are free from media tie-ins and our complementary products inspire a child's imagination. I'll tailor the event to your school, classroom or organization. As a Barefoot Stallholder, I do the work - meaning no extra obligations for teachers or parents.
