“Phoebe Fox has a way with children that captivates and engages their minds and imaginations. She is a gifted educator and writer who is using her talents to empower children to read and become writers themselves.” ~ Heather Caciola, Learning Resource Coordinator
Goals:
- Discuss why reading and writing are important
- Explain how books are made and where ideas for books come from
- Encourage children to read
- Share some of my stories
- Inspire children to write their stories
- Have FUN with Q & A!
“Phoebe [Fox] truly understands how to engage her audience and bring out thought provoking questions from those young minds.” ~ Paula Marinos, Pre-Kindergarten Teacher
Preparation:
Before a school visit, I encourage teachers to visit my website and share it with their students. Click the Videos tab to view my Storytime Saturday episodes! It’s also helpful if there are copies of my books available in classrooms or the school library. Books can be purchased in the Shop and will be shipped (or delivered) immediately.
“Phoebe Fox is a great speaker, wonderfully engaging, and the students of all ages enjoyed her visit to our school for the Read Across America event. Her books are ‘UP lifting’ and fun. I’ve just re-read ‘Up Up Up’ to my class and they recalled her visit with lots of enthusiasm!” ~ Karen Wells, Kindergarten Teacher
Autographed Books:
I will provide a pre-order form to send home with students for the purpose of ordering books before my visit. On the day of my visit, I will bring the books with me to sign and inscribe.
To schedule, please contact mamafoxbooks@gmail.com with the following:
- Your name and position at the school
- Your school’s name and address
- Your preferred month
- Your goal(s) for the visit
Once we have a date arranged, I will provide your school with whatever you may need to help promote the visit. And I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have!

Students are still talking about her visit weeks later.” ~ Alison Coviello, Christ Church School Librarian
“Phoebe Fox is engaging when she speaks and captures the attention of children from toddler to elementary school aged. They love to listen to her read and talk about books. It is a true pleasure to have Mrs. Fox present information.” ~ Christy Pylman, Mother and Library Volunteer
