School & Book Week Visits
I love nothing more than sharing my passion for books, stories and writing with kids.
My author visits are fun, energetic, interactive and informative (Did you know guinea pigs sometimes eat their own poo? Or that I once thought my neighbour was an alien robot?).
“Tania was superb…she really understands children and has a warm and friendly disposition. She created such interesting presentations for our students R-5… Our teachers and students were thrilled with the presentations and many students are now wanting to be writers. Tania’s books in our library have flown off the shelves.”
– Liz Denton-Brown, Pedare Christian College
“I absolutely loved this visit and so did the class. Her manner was very calm and welcoming and her PP slides really engaged the students. No question from the students was brushed off. She answered all questions with patience. No behaviour management was required, which is a testament to her presentation.“
– Bella (class N5 / year 2), Magill Primary School
“The students enjoyed hearing about Tania’s childhood and inspiration for her stories. They can’t wait for their turn to borrow the books.“
– Glenys French, Vale Park Primary School
“Our students really enjoyed Tania’s visit to our school. Her presentation was interactive, funny and her stories were very entertaining.“
– Jo Cross, Hewett Primary School

Writing Workshops
I offer creative, practical workshops designed to get children thinking, imagining and writing.
Workshops can be adapted for different ages and can focus on characters, story ideas, imagination, writing techniques and more.
“Over the last few days I’ve watched Tania present to year 6,7,8 students and run writers workshops for these year levels. Each workshop was tailored to the schools English program. Over the past 25 years I’ve seen many authors present and run workshops. Tania is by far one of the best.”
– Hajnalka Molloy, Concordia College
“We were delighted to welcome Tania Ingram, celebrated children’s author, to our school. Tania’s visit was truly inspiring, engaging our students with her infectious enthusiasm and genuine passion for storytelling. Our students were captivated by her stories and left the session eager to write their own, inspired by Tania’s encouragement and practical tips.“
– Sally Colburn, Rose Park Primary School
“Tania was great and engaging to listen to present… Loved the ‘What if’ she used to engage the kids to spark their imaginations. After recess kids collaborated and wrote down a whole heap of ‘what if’ and then chose 1 to write a quick short story.“
– Faith (Year 4 teacher), Magill Primary School

- Book Week presentations
- Panel discussions and conversations about children’s books and writing
If you’re planning an event and would like to discuss what’s possible, please get in touch.
“Tania was a popular book week presenter at our library. She was funny and engaging and the children enjoyed hearing about the personal inspiration for her book and about the writing process from start to finish. She encouraged interaction from the children and a lively Q and A time!“
– Jo Kaeding, Stirling Coventry Library
