Author visits forBook now for World Book Day 2024!

Book me for World Book Day 2024 and give your children a World Book Day they’ll never forget.

My virtual visit packages for primary schools includes 6 live Zoom and Microsoft Teams sessions on World Book Day, 13 pre-recorded videos including a 15 minute personalised assembly video, a worksheet for each year group and 2 live private writing sessions for your school. I will also send you a ‘Mermaid’s Wedding Picture Trail’ which is based on my Mermaid’s Wedding picture book. This can be put up in the corridors of your school or outside and will be fun for children of all ages to do.

My virtual visit packages for high schools and colleges, includes 3 live Zoom and Microsoft Teams sessions on World Book Day, 6 pre-recorded videos including a 15 minute personalised assembly video, a worksheet for each year group and up to 4 live private Q&As or writing sessions for your school.

Not only will the children in your school enjoy learning about how I became an author, watch me perform my stories and complete writing challenges … they’ll write a real book that will be published in the summer term!

There will be two books created – one with primary schools and one with high schools who book me for World Book Day. Last year, I wrote The Mermaid’s Wedding picture book with ten primary schools. We had a fantastic time at our book launch and I want to do the same in the summer term. We have two fantastic illustrators who we will work with and they’ll be involved in the whole process.

My year 4 class really enjoyed your assembly and classroom session. It was great for them to hear about your journey from writing rugby reports for the local newspaper to becoming a best selling author! Very inspiring and hopefully made them realise that they too could achieve this with a bit of hard work.

Sarah visited our school on World Book Day. She led a very interesting and motivating whole school assembly that provided information about her life and regarding her journey to becoming an author, which the children and staff who were present thoroughly enjoyed. “Sarah then found the time to visit each class during the day and deliver stimulating and engaging writing workshops which encouraged our children to think like authors, carry our research and work to a deadline in order to produce and ‘publish’ a class book, based on her own popular A-Z series of books.

Working with Sarah Oliver really enabled us to bring our literacy lessons to life. Our children became enthused and were truly inspired by her work, and were seen utterly submerged into the activities she delivered during her workshop. After the workshop we were able to apply the skills developed into our biographies, creating quality pieces that were published.
