Our Author / Speaker

Susan Shwartz

Susan Schwartz, Ed.D., educator, literacy/arts advocate, and author/co-author of books for teachers, is the recent author of a children’s book for ages 3-8, based on true events about her son’s childhood monkey puppet, which he still has. The story’s repetition and description encourage reading in even reluctant readers. Unique to the book,  “Another Monkey?”(in English, French-English, & Spanish-English) is that the author’s six grandchildren are the illustrators—inspiring all readers to become illustrators/artists/authors. Since 2020, Susan has worked as editor, self-publisher, and coach.
