I just finished visiting 3 schools in the Dripping Springs School District (in Texas) and we had a blast  ... I think I made one kid laugh so hard that milk came out his nose ... at least I think it was milk  ...  not sure... anyways it was fun. Dripping Springs has great schools, kids, teachers and administrators. Thanks everybody for having me.

This weekend I will have a booth at the Georgetown Texas Red Poppy Festival on Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday (April 24, 25 and 26).
Come on down and enjoy some good music and art and I will be there to sign books for you all 3 days.

I was a child in the 80's who's school you visited yearly. E.W Ward Elementary, to be exact. I owned Planet of Ree book, and a few others-but fee was my favorite, growing up and of course autographed by you. They were a treasure of mine. As I grew up, I met people who had never heard of you before and I was floored by that, as I talked if your books like they were part of my family. Finally, as an adult, I meta family who was very very poor, but who's children adored reading. I passed my treasures along to those children, living somewhere in Arkansas. I will always cherish my memories of my well read books and am proud to have passed them down. How would one go about booking you to come to a school in Oklahoma and do a signing and such as you did for my school when I was a child? My niece and nephew would likely love your books and are elementary aged and I would love to find out if how to book you! Or, at the absolute least, I'd live to know how buy your books so many years later. I googled it and this was the first result so here I am .
Thanks,

It was great to hear from you. What a cool story about your "Family of Ree" book. I hope the family that you gave those books to enjoyed them as much as you did. When I hear stories like yours it makes me happy that I have this job.
Of course you found my sight so you can purchase books from here and I can sign them as well. As a matter of fact I have the 25th anniversary edition of the Ree book available.
As far as school visits: I charge an honorarium of $125.00 plus the school needs to send home the order forms for my books. I am currently in Austin TX so I would need airfare to get there. and possibly 1 night in a hotel. Is it possible there are a few schools that would like me to come out? That way the cost could be spread out. There is a sample of part of my presentation on my site here and I could send more info.

I talk to 10,000 to 18,000 kids a year all around the US.

What do you think?
