Zewlan Moor is a wonderful champion of the local KidLit community. It has become a tradition for the Who's who of kidlit writers in Brisbane to have a launch at Where the Wild Things Are and have Zewlan Moor as our launch host. Zewlan is a confident speaker and asks insightful and thought provoking questions of the authors she is helping launch. She takes the time to read your book and understand your story and also understand you as a writer and a person. Zewlan helped me launch my debut pictu [...]

Charlie’s visit exceeded our expectations – he was great and the kids loved him! He was also a pleasure to work with, was always accommodating and always communicated with us promptly on email. He was outstanding!

Dub was absolutely lovely - he and the kids had a wonderful time, and he was happy to take on board our slightly different approach for the day - a very positive experience!

We were excited to welcome Dr. Rob Bell to our all-boys college, where he captivated our Year 7 students with his dynamic science experiments and innovative approach to creative writing. Dr. Bell’s ability to seamlessly blend hands-on scientific exploration with imaginative storytelling not only engaged our students but also ignited their curiosity and creativity. His sessions were a perfect blend of education and inspiration. We are incredibly grateful for his visit and look forward to future c [...]

Thank you so very much for your time today. I've already received over 20 emails from parents and students expressing their thanks and appreciation. The students and staff really loved meeting you, getting to know more about the book writing and illustrating processes and seeing some of your magnificent pieces of art. They are already asking if we can have you back next week!! Again, thank you so very much for all that you brought today. It was truly a memorable experience, one which we will a [...]

Professional and efficient

Both Veresdale and Woodhill schools enjoyed Martin's Visits. The children loved seeing the process that Martin engages in when illustrating and contributing their ideas. He captured their imagination and encouraged them to experiment with ideas and drawing etc. Thank you for recommending Martin for our visit this year.

Karen was amazing with the children. She got them to open up and think about things in a different way.

Helen’s visit to our school was phenomenal! Her presentation was very informative, giving students an insight into the process and inspiration of her writing. Her presentation captured all student’s attention, engaging them through discussions, interactive examples, and props! All students thoroughly enjoyed Helen’s visit to our school!

Jan Latta was an excellent speaker and we got a lot of positive feedback.

Thank you for your help with our Writer in Residence program at Ryan this year. Your recommendation of Tristan Bancks worked well, and I could not recommend him more highly to other schools looking to run a similar program. We threw quite a challenge at him; he worked with students from Year 1 all the way to Year 9, and with teachers as well. In all of his sessions, he was organised, informative and engaging. The students were awestruck and got a lot out of it, and the teachers have been offeri [...]

Just a quick email to let you know how wonderful Mark Svendsen was. He was terrific and just "struck the right note" with everyone. All the feedback has been very positive, both about the keynote speech, and the two workshops. I'd really like to get him to come to our school for some student writing workshops next year.

We had a wonderful time with you - thanks. I bragged you up on the Library Listserve - every school should have you visit!
