Want to have your class participate in a free Skype session with Todd? It's easy. Just have them read one or more of his books and prepare questions. Each Skype session lasts roughly 30 minutes.
Todd only does one Skype session per day, so sign up soon!
Hi Todd,
Just wanted to say thanks again for the great Skype Session! The kids loved their time talking with you and all of your books are checked out of the library!
Thanks again!

Thank you so very much, Todd.
It is difficult to hold the attention of that class beyond a few minutes – trust me, I know that as well as anyone – and you had their rapt attention for thirty-five straight minutes. I’m not sure that I’ll be able to break that record by June.
You might find it interesting that you defied their stereotypical notions of how an author would act. They just informed me that they thought an author would be stuffy, boring, and reserved. Instead, they found you to be funny, engaging, and energetic. You’ve charmed them! (No easy task.)
I completely agree with them, but I would also like to add gracious, generous, and sincere. Thanks again. You have given all of us an unforgettable learning experience.

Hi IT WAS GREAT!
The kids really enjoyed it. It was so different from a regular lesson. You should have been a teacher – you have the touch!
I want to thank you very much! I hope you don’t get too many calls from once the word goes out! Anyway you were wonderful and the kids were very impressed.
Thanks again!
Karen
GREAT skype yesterday! The kids LOVE you! This one experience got the kids all hyped up now to skype with authors, so job well done. You are very entertaining! But then you know that! Lol
I cannot thank you enough for the Skype session this past Friday. I received many compliments throughout the day from other teachers who heard their students talking about “how cool” it was and how it made the reading assignment so much better. Your words were so honest and I really appreciate you speaking so candidly about your struggles with spelling and grammar – I think it struck home for a lot of kids who may struggle as well. So thank you again for helping me out and showing my class how cool reading can be!
