Pre-Recorded Author Visit
Why Book a Pre-Recorded Author Visit?
Save time, money, and a bit of your sanity by choosing a prerecorded Author visit by Thembani and Desaray Mnyandu!
-
Pre-recorded visits give you the flexibility to share with your class at a time that is convenient for you, without the hassle of considering internet connections, interruptions, or teaching schedule.
-
A pre recorded visit is just a fraction of the cost of an in-person visit. At just $100, you could include another author or fun activity into your school year.

Pre-recorded doesn't mean boring. We will customize portions of the presentation to address your students personally and make them feel involved and excited!

Purchasing a recording also includes full access to worksheets and activities as well as two signed books (one for class, one for school library), and 30 Sindi themed bookmarks!
