Author Visits + Frequently Asked Questions
Do you do author visits?
Sasha does author visits virtually or in person for preschool
and K-5th.
PreK and K focus on readings and art activities and are 20-30 minutes.

Designed to inspire and invite children into the creative process, author visits provide a glimpse of Sasha’s path as an author/illustrator, how to turn an idea into a story, how the words and pictures move the story along, how a book gets made,
and more.
