Talks & Appearances

Elvira Woodruff has written twenty-four books for young readers and visited over a thousand schools nationwide, offering lively and informative presentations on the craft of writing. Learn more:

“Presenting at schools and conferences is a fun and rewarding part of my work. Since many of my books are used in the core curriculum, I have tailored my school visits for kindergarten on up to middle school. My aim for each visit is high. I want to encourage and empower each child to find their own voice on the page. I want them to have as much fun at writing as I’m having. Children empowered to write are children empowered to enrich their own lives.” - Elvira Woodruff
 

Praise for Elvira's school visits:
"We are still experiencing the impact of your visit. Students who were not motivated about writing are trying to write more, and others are still talking about your presentation and the importance of writing. You were able to reinforce what we have been teaching. Your presentations to the primary and intermediate grades were outstanding. Our whole day with you was truly enlightening." - Crofton Meadows Elementary, Principal
