While promoting the message "Read a zillion books", Jerry Pallotta excites readers with icky bugs and chocolate math. Jerry writes for the classroom. His curriculum-based books focus on reading, writing, math and science, with just the right dose of humor and the unexpected. A school visit with Jerry promotes basic skills and creates enthusiasm for learning.
Kids and teachers can explore many of their favorite subjects in his broad range of alphabet books from the simplest Ocean Alphabet and Icky Bug Alphabet to the more challenging Airplane Alphabet and Skull Alphabet. Get behind the scenes with Jerry to explore the craft of researching and writing, editing and reworking. Introduce those reluctant math students to Jerry’s beautifully illustrated series of elementary math books. Apple Fractions, Hershey Multiplication, One Hundred Ways to Get to 100, and Count To a Million are just a few of his recent titles.
A typical school day includes K–6 students and teachers. Parents and staff are also welcome. Jerry’s talks last about an hour and include a general introduction, a slide program and audience participation activities. Three or four talks in one day work well. Jerry charges $2,00 plus expenses per school day. Jerry Pallotta’s Read a Zillion Books Tour makes learning accessible, exciting and fun. Come join in!
