Award Winning Author Visits Elementary Schools

L. Kobie Wilkerson, award winning author, visited eight elementary schools to teach about writing and share his love of reading and education.

At Cherry Creek, Mr. Wilkerson spent lunch with the faculty answering questions that they had about his teaching and consulting background. Afterwards, assemblies were held in small groups so he could share how he developed his book ideas, share digital versions of his book as well as answer questions the students had about him. Copies of his book "Queen Infinity" were provided for each teacher and staff member, where he gladly signed each copy. Mrs. Morrise's fifth-grade class received a personal audience during their library time. Mr. Wilkerson spent his week in Utah visiting other schools and sharing similar messages. Cherry Creek enjoyed his inspirational message to find their inner writer.

Kobie also visited Westside, Rees, Park, Wilson, Taylor, Santaquin, and Goshen Elementary Schools. Thank you Kobie for making reading interesting and fun!
