A Skype Call with Author Tom Angleberger

My students are huge fans of the Origami Yoda series and when I taught in The Bahamas, we did an amazing Skype call with him. I figured he was too busy and famous now to talk to us, but I was wrong. Every Thursday, he has Skype calls with schools, and it is obvious, because he is a master at getting kids excited.

Tom asked the kids for their book recommendations and gave a few of his own, showed us how to fold our own Origami Yodas, and gave us a sneak preview of the new book,  Princess Labelmaker to the Rescue. The students were screaming with excitement and were so grateful after the call. 

If you want to generate excitement, Tom Angleberger is a generous author who can hype the kids up!
