Presenters What can authors, illustrators, and storytellers teach? Everything! Storytelling is still the oldest and most effective teaching tool ever devised. We blend education and entertainment in each of our presentations. The proof? Educators say, “We need more programs like this!” Students ask, “Can you please come back tomorrow?” Working with educators, publishers, presenters, students, and parents, we’ve been developing and providing effective programs since 1990. They support core academic goals including the Georgia Power Standards. Instructional time is too precious to waste. Our presenters use a storytelling format to bridge cultural, language, and learning differences. Students hear it, see it, and learn to do it. Personal interaction with successful people who are good role models and enthusiastic practitioners of their crafts has immediate and lasting value. Students learn to appreciate excellence, recognize and build their own strengths and abilities, and expand their dreams, goals, and boundaries. Hundreds of schools and thousands of students in eleven states have enjoyed and benefited from our programs. With your limited time and growing demands, it makes sense to use our experience and delegate the details to us. You can accomplish your tasks effectively and still bring in excellent programs without the risks and hassles of “do it yourself.” As a veteran teacher said, “You can spend weeks checking out presenters and books and working out details or you can call The Owl’s Tree and let them do it for you.” Authors, Illustrators, Musicians, Puppeteers & Storytellers Josie Bailey, Storyteller Mark Braught, Illustrator Melanie Chrismer, Author Jeffrey Comanor, Author, Illustrator, Composer, Musician Carmen Agra Deedy, Author and Storyteller Adrian Fogelin, Author Mike (“Stinger”) Glenn, Author, TV Commentator, Professional Basketball Player and Willie (“Birdman”) Brown, Artist and Basketball Player Joel Hayes, Cowboy Poet Akbar Imhotep, Storyteller and Puppeteer Jimmy Jacobs, Author, Editor, and Storyteller Gail Karwoski, Author Laura Knorr, Illustrator and Art Instructor Virginia Meldrum, Storyteller Wade Meldrum, Storyteller Michael Montgomery, Author and Illustrator Nancy K.
