Events

We love to share our books and are happily available for school and library visits, interviews, and book talks and signings both in the United States and Korea.

“We recently had the pleasure of hosting an author visit at Korea International School, Seoul Campus, with MaryJo Glover, Debbi Kent, Joan Suwalsky, Kate Lee, and Sangin Lee, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The team was incredibly friendly, engaging, and enthusiastic, captivating our students with their stories and activities. Their visit inspired a newfound excitement for writing among our young learners, who left feeling motivated to express themselves creatively. The workshop session for parents was equally appreciated, receiving positive feedback for their visit. We highly recommend this author team to any school looking to inspire their students through literature and storytelling.”

“It is easy to see the passion that the Ginkgo Tree Tales team has for writing - and more importantly, story-telling. This team had students from 3 years old to 10 years old on the edges of their seats, engaged in what these authors and illustrators had to share. What is most impressive is how the presentations embedded factual information regarding Korean culture into its web of storytelling. Better yet, the team provided related games, puzzles and activities that allowed students and families to engage with the story long after the Ginkgo Tree Tales team had left our school.”
