Description:
How I Became an Author. New Jersey children’s book author Dan Gutman is back! Dan has written more than 50 children’s books, most of them with sports themes. Although he may be best known for his “Baseball Card Adventure” series and his “My Weird School” series,” Dan has received a lot of praise for his book The Kid Who Ran for President.Dan will talk about how he became a writer, where he gets his story ideas and reiterate the importance of perserverance. There will be plenty of time for students’ questions and interactive discussion! A virtual book signing will conclude this event.
Each school participating in this event will receive one of Dan's "My Weird School" books, courtesy of HarperCollins.
Don't miss this popular event with Dan!
