WELCOME TO VIRTUAL VISITS WITH SUE!
​
What’s the next best thing
to having children's book author Sue Fliess
visit your school in person?
Having her visit virtually!
I’ve started receiving too many in-person school visit requests each year to accommodate them all (bummer!), so I’ve created an affordable, accessible virtual solution for schools everywhere.
I’m so excited to be hosting my own virtual author visits through Zoom Events! The first one was OCTOBER 16, 2024, at 10am PST/1pm EST. I'm sorry if you missed it!
​
I hope to add more virtual author visits soon--please check back!
