The Visit
Please list up to three possible dates or time periods for the author to visit. If possible, your dates should be no less than two weeks apart to maximize the chances of the author being available. NOTE: It's best to plan six months to a year ahead for most authors. Remember to list dates in order of preference.

Hint: November, March, and April are usually the busiest traveling months for our authors and illustrators. If possible, try to pick dates in other months.

Background Information
The more you tell us, the better we can "sell" your proposal to the author.

Why are you interested in having an author/illustrator visit your school or library?

Have you had other authors before? Which authors? Is there any other information that would give us and the author a better understanding of your goals, the type of event, etc?
