Ross Anthony K-12 Presentations

I'm a professional writer/illustrator in the Los Angeles area,
author of a young adult series, two children's books, and over 1000 articles.
At no cost to schools, I fire up students with a passion for READING & WRITING.

• I bring my own Digital Projector and Headset Mic.
• I present class by class or via assemblies for one full school day.
• I command attention by playing my handmade flute defining ART (in general) as accessible to anyone with...
    * 1) HEART/Message   * 2) Instrument/Tool   * 3) Willingness to Practice/Revise.
• Writing is also an art, and I demystify the book creation process with my digital slide presentation
   on the making of my illustrated book in 8 languages.
• It's my objective to motivate each student to view writing in a fresh, exciting, and empowering way.
  To reassure them that red marks peppering their written assignments should not discourage them,
  but inspire them.
• I allow 10-20 minutes for a student-centered and lively interactive question/answer session.
• Lastly, I juggle & eat an apple at the same time to hammer home the 3 elements of art theme.
  They love it, and I'm usually hungry by then.
• If requested, I read brief selections from my works, but any author can do that.
  My purpose is to inspire your students to read with all the fire of their curiosity
  and to embrace writing with all the passion of their desire to be understood.

Schools all over the States can enjoy these presentations at no charge by running a quick & easy built-in fundraiser. Phone me right now for details, timely references and available dates. The sooner you call, the more receptive these young minds will be for your fine teachers. I'll be the best speaker you've ever sponsored. Ross Anthony 1-800-767-7186
