The Book Fairy
The official website for the original Book Fairy.
School and Library visits.
A Variety of Programs
The Book Fairy is super flexible and willing to work with you to make YOUR event the BEST it can be. Book some magic for your next event?
FULL PROGRAM: 30 - 45 minutes per group (can be one grade level, or whole school.)
Storytelling: Her original story tells how she became the Book Fairy. ("I started out as a tooth fairy, but failed the test.")
Interpretive reading: Then she reads to the children in a hilarious storytelling style. Book selection is any theme of your choice or even specific title/s.
Literacy Lesson: The Book Fairy has a unique way of encouraging the kids to read. "After all we don't want our brains to turn into mush like cold oatmeal, do we?"
Schools often choose this program for one grade level. One elementary school invites her every year to visit each first grade class, encouraging them to keep reading over the summer break. This also works well in the library with combined classes.
SPECIALTY PROGRAMS:
Designed for Summer Reading Programs, Book Fairs, Family Reading Night, etc.
For this program, the Book Fairy will
Greet your visitors as they arrive for your special event.
Be available for pictures and autographs during the event.
Mingle with the crowd, sprinkling her Fairy Dust on everyone she meets.
She usually welcomes the general group and tells them a little about herself and the event. Always, she encourages them to READ.
The Book Fairy provides a wonderfully entertaining, fun, but educational experience for young readers.
Her objectives :
- get children excited about books and reading
- teach children about the "magic" in books
- encourage them to READ, READ, READ!
(After all you only get better at something with practice!)
Her visit isn't complete until she sprinkles her magical, non-messy,
Book Fairy sparkles on the children, so they'll be better readers.
Custom Made Bookmarks
Each child receives the Book Fairy's special bookmark. It has some of her sparkly fairy dust so they always have some Book Fairy magic with them. It will remind them of her visit and tells them to READ!
