If you decide to start a unit of study about an author it is always a good idea to introduce the author to your students/child. I love to create and share an author poster with my students. I make it on a half sheet of poster board and include a picture along with some basic facts about the author. Students like seeing what the author looks like and learning a little something about them. I always try to include a fun fact and information about their family.
