School Visits!
Tippy in the Classroom
The story truly comes alive through reading, writing, music, movement and art as students become their own authors and illustrators! From small groups of 10-12 all the way up to 75-95 children, everyone will enjoy their time in Tippy’s world!
A Tippy Visit Testimonial
“Author Mary Beth Stevens brought energy and variety to students with interactive, fun activities during her presentation in our media center. Engaging a roomful of K-3 students for 45 minutes can be a challenge, but not when you encourage singing, movement and creative input. While presenting her picture book Tippy Finds a Home, Mary Beth asked for ideas to add more movement to her fun Tippy song and then had students draw and share their ideas for new Tippy adventures. I was skeptical about having 100 students at a time drawing and coloring on the floor and then getting up to sing and wiggle in a crowded space, but both students and teachers enjoyed participating in some adventurous Tippy time. I highly recommend inviting Mary Beth to your library or school for an author event.”
