Author Visits

Meet the author behind Martin Moo! Students hear how a real book gets made β€” from a scribble in a journal to a published story β€” and leave believing they can be authors too.

Interactive Read-Alouds

A lively, participatory reading of Martin Moo's Bowl of Stew with call-and-response, movement, and plenty of moo-ing. Best for PreK–2 groups.

Story-connected STEM challenges led by a former chemistry major turned educator. Students design, build, and test β€” with Martin cheering them on.
