NEW EDITING SERVICE: Let me use my more than 20 years of expertise as a college English teacher and author to help you reach
your dream of becoming an author. Edits include line edits to correct for grammar and spelling and complete edits to review
character development, plot development, story arc, use of dialogue, etc. My 20 years as an ESL teacher make me
uniquely qualified to work with authors for whom English is a second language, but I work with all writers in all genres.

I am Carol Kasser, also known as Bubbie the Book Lady. Using puppets, crafts
and participatory storytelling, I bring books alive for children. I perform at libraries, parties, pre-schools
and elementary schools. I also do educational workshops in which I guide students at all levels through
writing or illustrating their own stories. I am available in Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware for one
day workshops, and nationwide for longer programs.
Contact me at kass911@aol.com to design a program tailored to the needs of your students. Prices begin as low as $250. for a full day
session. Programs include
1. Classroom Rap-teach math, science, English, history through informative and
entertaining rap songs.
2. Create your own story: Take students as young as K,1,2 through a story, discussing the creative
process, and then help them create their own book.
3. Create your own box craft. This session can be tied into
art class or the "how-to" essay in English class. Students learn about the process vehind writing Just Give
Me a Box-a craft book of projects made from boxes, see a demonstration, then work in small groups to create their
own box project. They finish by writing up "how-to" instructions so others can make their project as well. Teachers
may opt to photograph the projects and create a book with the crafts and the instructions to be shared with other students
in the school library.
4. Middle School program on bullying, feeling different using Bulb-head as
a springboard for discussion. This book can also be tied into a history lesson about President Kennedy, the space program,
or The Cuban Missile Crisis, or the difference between life now and in the 1960's.
5. Pre-school storytelling with interactive
stories.
