TESTIMONIALS
______________________________________________________
I was delighted with our school visit by Jenni. Her passion and love for the work she does was inspirational for our students and teachers. During Jenni's visit she engaged our students in interactive sessions that were tailored to the different ages she was speaking to. Jenni's visit reminded our students and teachers about the magic that lies within the pages of a picture book.

We have loved having Jenni visit our high school students to share her knowledge and skills in illustration. She has come on multiple occasions to present for a unit on picture books, and for each visit Jenni has updated her material to remain informative, engaging and interactive. She has run presentations and small group workshops which our students have been excited to be a part of. The students not only enjoy the experience but the content sticks with them! We are looking forward to many more visits in the future!

Jenni shared the creative process with our students and encouraged them to take chances and draw what they were feeling. Our students beamed with pride as they shared their drawings with each other and Jenni. Her passion for art and stories is contagious.
