Yes, Greg Trine is an author who visits schools!
When Greg isn’t writing funny books for kids and teens, he usually can be found cracking them up live and in person. Need an author to visit your school? Greg’s your man.
With plenty of visuals and audience participation, Greg delves into the writing process and the fun of storytelling and writing humorous books for kids. Your students will come away with:
- The importance of writing beyond the first draft
