Meet Bubbie the Book Lady!

BRAND 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. Contact me as kass911@aol.com for more information. 

 

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.

BUBBIE'S EVENTS:

NEW: Bubbie's Editing Service

Let me use my expertise as an  author and educator to help you edit your books. I specialize in line edits of books written by non-native writers of English. My 15 years as  an assistant professor of ESL make me uniquely qualified to work with these authors. While I specialize in children's and young adult books, I can do both grammatical line edits and complete edits for character development, plot development, story arc, etc.  for all authors in any genre. Contact me as kass911@aol.com for more information.
