<p class="MsoNormal">I am the K-12 district librarian for Sterling Public Schools and watched a presentation of Michael Wayne at one of my K-2 schools. He isn't a very dynamic presenter and I wouldn't recommend him for a whole-school presentations (he had an
hour-long presentation for five sections of kindergarteners sitting on the gym floor...it did NOT go well). His stories are cute, and his own story about creating the books is interesting, but he is not a super dynamic presenter. I think it'd be fun if he
could visit a classroom or two, but I wouldn't suggest an entire school presentation...<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">He is easy going and very pleasant, but he's soft spoken and very gentle, which doesn't necessarily command a presence in front of a large group of small kiddos!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">He is from Yorkville (Where my school is. I am a K-3 building) and he is scheduled to come at the end of November. So far he has been super easy to work with and sent just the other day all 3 books and teacher resources, as well as flyers
and order forms for his books to start getting kids ready for his visit. I can let you know how it goes! So far the kids are excited and love the books!<o:p></o:p></p>
