Author Visit TODAY!

 
 
Today we had an author visit form C.Alexander London. He wrote a great book that our class read. It's called AN ACCIDENTAL ADVENTURE: WE ARE NOT EATEN BY YAKS.


He was very funny and we loved his book so much that we made him gifts. We had a great time with him and if you are looking for a good book, he is an author we would recommend!


One of the characters on p. 65 of THE ACCIDENTAL ADVENTURE  has a large collection of duck ties. Two of our classmates made duck ties for everyone. We wore them to the event! Even Mrs. Alaniz!



Tibet is a setting in the story.
There is a yeti in the book. Here's the yeti we made for the visit. We like his tie.
 
Here's what some of our classmates said about the visit:
"I thought it was pretty awesome to have an author read a chapter to us!"
"He was funny, and he seemed very honest."
"When it was over, I was inspired to become a writer."
"This was the best author visit we've ever had."
"We got to meet him in PERSON. No Skype or anything."
We had a fun visit with Mr. London!
Have you ever read his books?

  2. I loved the author visit. It is different from all of the other author visits I've been to! Did you see the yeti I made? It was fun to make!
