Cookie describing how she crafted her
original book A New Year's Family! |
|

Cookie is available for inspirational presentations and book signings at schools, libraries, and all organizations!
The school presentation is about forty-five minutes: consisting of a five-minute VHS/DVD introducing the characters (access to a monitor will be needed). Jake the Cow Horse takes twenty-five minutes to read---or A New Year’s Family takes fifteen minutes---leaving the remaining time for book signings, and a fun interactive Q & A with the students. I’ll also show how books are made, since that seems to fascinate them. A coloring page of both books will be available for the teacher to copy and hand out to the students for a classroom project if they desire.
Cookie is also available for adult inspirational appearances. She will share the story of how she became an author, illustrator and narrator of children's books. If you would like to invite Cookie to visit your book club, organization or women’s group, contact her today for more information or to customize your presentation.
You’ll have the chance to:
- Meet the characters
- Hear a few pages from the stories Jake the Cow Horse and A New Year’s Family
- Ask questions!
- See how the original book A New Year’s Family was crafted
- Receive a bookmark and a coloring page from A New Year’s Family or Jake the Cow Horse
- Get answers and ideas on how you can put a book together... just for fun!
Appearance Fee: If Cookie is aready planning to be in your area there will be no fee; book sales can be arranged to cover her cost. Contact Cookie to make other arrangements.
