Author Visit Reviews

“Carol’s author visit was engaging, interactive, and thoughtfully tailored to each grade level. Both lower and upper elementary students learned about the self-publishing process in an age-appropriate way, with upper elementary exploring it in a bit more depth. Lower elementary students loved the stories and especially the bear hunt activity, which was a fun and memorable highlight. Upper elementary students participated in creating a story together as a group, which led to lots of student involvement, laughter, and creativity. Throughout the visit, Carol kept students engaged with a dynamic presentation that was both informative and fun.”

“In a world where children need encouragement more than ever, Ms. Lomasney’s stories remind them that bravery grows with practice, friendship, and believing in themselves. Her books leave students feeling confident, supported, and inspired to try new things. Combined with her energetic and engaging author visit, Ms. Lomasney creates an experience that students will remember long after the presentation is over. Her passion for storytelling and for empowering young readers truly shines through. Our school was incredibly fortunate to host her, and both The Best Friend Crew and I Grew Very Brave are books that will continue to inspire our students for years to come.

“We loved having local Michigan author Mrs. Carol Lomasney visit our school for March is Reading Month! She has visited our school twice and did an excellent job both times. She is super engaging, her presentations are very informative, and she has a way of bringing her books to life! Our K-2nd grade students were excited, involved, and inspired to read more. It was a great experience for everyone! We would love to have her back at Schwarzkoff Elementary!"
