Skype and Author Network
Wouldn't it be great to invite authors into your classroom or library to video chat with students before, during, and/or after reading their books? Author Mona Kirby and School Media Specialist Sarah Chauncey developed a website to help schools and authors connect, the Skype and Author Network. See list of authors here.
Arrangements for Skype visits are made via email and/or phone between the author and the teacher or media specialists. Authors offer two types of visits: free "meet the author" visits lasting 10-15 minutes, or longer in-depth visits with the time and fee determined by each author. Enjoy!
