Storad responds!
Besides introducing me to his own Web site, "Top" Storad had this to say:[...] I surely can't quit my day job... yet. Writing books can keep you busy, but it is the visits to schools that really keep you hopping. To date, I've visited more than 600 schools and probably have presented to almost 600,000 kids and teachers in nine different states. It's lots of fun... and energy draining. I have more respect for teachers today than I ever had. I'd love to visit schools in your area any time. Please share my web site info with any librarians, reading specialists, or literacy coaches that you know. Since January, I've visited 60 schools and libraries and talked to at least 50,000 students and teachers and parents. Still gotta find time to get this day job done. But they all mesh together. What I'm really all about is promoting science literacy, and love of reading, and literacy in general – through my books and the magazines I edit here at ASU.I was disappointed to find on a recent visit to my local Barnes & Noble that, while they listed all of Top's titles on their computer, they didn't have a single one on their shelves. What? Is New Jersey so much of a Garden State that our people have no interest in desert life at all?
