schools and meeting kids are among my favorite parts of being
an author/illustrator. To
arrange a school visit, FAQs
“Alexander Stadler gained instant rapport with our Lower
School audience. We were thrilled with his friendly and fun way
of reading
aloud, and of gathering kids in to a jazzy but well-led discussion
afterwards. His spontaneous drawings were appreciated by all, and
added an exciting and attention riveting dimension to his visit.
He invited participation, and got it! Everyone was delighted with
the result--a new friend who is an author, too! Alexander has just
the right blend of kid connection and whimsy. We hope he wants to
come see us again and again!” “Mr. Stadler is a talented
artist and author who understands children very well. Children
find his simple illustrations captivating.
Our
students were rapt watching him demonstrate the many steps he had
to take from drawing the illustrations of his book to its final
publication. The children eagerly and enthusiastically asked questions.
Mr. Stadler
answered all questions with care. Mr. Stadler has great rapport
with children.” “A premier program that is held annually during Children’s Book Week is Bookamania, a day-long celebration of children, books and children’s authors and illustrators. For two years in a row Alexander Stadler graced the Chicago Public Library with his presence at this event. Not only did he spend Bookamania with the kids of the city of Chicago, but, for two days prior to the event he conducted visits with children at nearby library branches. Children, ages 7-9 were filled with wonder as they interacted with, talked to and created a Beverly craft with Alexander. Teachers stated that Alexander was a real treasure, for he gave the children so much of himself and they are now so eager to read more of his books or books like his.” Bernadette Nowakowski Director, Children and Young Adult Services Chicago Public Library “It was thrilling for me, as your first grade teacher, having known you at the very beginning of your life as a reader and writer, to have you return as a published author, sharing your work with the students starting out with me now. The circle felt beautifully complete.” Naomi Gams-Towers Elementary School Teacher Westchester County, NY “Alexander not only knows how to write for children, he knows how to talk to children. His exuberance in the classroom matches the exuberance of his illustrations.” Hildy Martin Second Grade Teacher, Columbus School New Rochelle, NY |
