Presentations

Kids and FlagsI really enjoy sharing my curiosity as well as my love for writing with audiences of all ages. This includes author visits for students as well as conference and library presentations.

I am experienced with with all grade levels and a wide variety of audience sizes, and would be happy to provide references.

Author Visits

With Kids 1 With Kids 2

One of the best parts of being an author is sharing my passion for writing. “Real Writing” author visits are based on my experience as an author as well as my strong belief in the importance of writing. My goal in working with students is to engage their curiosity in order to improve writing and reading skills. In planning a visit, I work with teachers to develop presentations that support their work in classrooms. Presentation topics include:

  • Starting with questions
  • The search for ideas
  • How ideas become books
  • How to make weak writing strong
  • How to make strong writing stronger
  • Real-life research
  • The writing life
  • Argument (make-a-case) writing

    Dear Mr. Young,
    On Monday I begin teaching a 1st through 5th grade Ecology class called, “Habitats are Where Its At!” and I am wondering if you can come and talk to us about your newest book about Wolves.
    Thanks for thinking about it!

      Hi Kimberly,
      I would be happy to speak with your class, but my schedule is quite full now. How long will your class be running? What school are you working in? I’d be happy to send you information about my visits and then we can get you on the schedule.
