[aisle] Author recommendation for high school

[Huitron, Sofia]

We're not a high school, but he was at our junior high last year (6-8). I
think he would actually be great for a high school since most of his books
are YA.
He was amazing! So down to earth with teachers and students, very willing
to sign books and take pictures. His presentations were great and somewhat
tailored for each grade level. All 3 of his presentations were slightly
different. He was very engaging and had the students attention throughout.
He also agreed to have a "lunch with the author" for a small group of
students and that was really great too.

I would definitely recommend him for an author visit!!
