A Few Testimonials from Educators
"What a delight for students, teachers, and staff when Artie Bennett comes to visit! His presentations and read-alouds are engaging and informative. Artie obviously loves the magic of words and the power of picking just the right ones for his writing. It was a pleasure to meet him and have him share his talent with my students."—Kelley Stiles, reading specialist at Anastasia Elementary School, Long Branch, NJ
"You were a sensation with the students before you uttered your first syllable. The children adored the presentation! And I believe the parents were as enthralled as the students. The books are infused with a delightful use of rhyme, onomatopoeia, remarkable facts, and extraordinary illustrations that kept the children mesmerized throughout the entirety of your appearance. They are simultaneously whimsical and instructive. As an educator, I love it. The stories serve as a fabulous starting point for language arts, science, math, cultural diversity lessons. Reading your books reminds me of Dr. Seuss books that can be read and reread without ever getting old. What a treat for our children and families to meet an author as warm and personable as you. You were incredibly gracious, as well as generous with your time. Due in large part to your participation, we enjoyed our most successful book fair ever!"
