Just so you know...

Recently, Jeff buzzed most of his hair off and started wearing contacts. Nobody recognizes him any-more, not even his family!


Presentation Information


Kelly Mill Middle School
Blythewood, SC

Jeff Stone's presentations are high-energy and interactive as he invites audience volunteers to learn animal style kung fu poses that represent the different series main characters. "Show, Don't Tell," is often the theme, with audience members ranging from Kindergarten through adult. Jeff also does numerous writing workshop and educator conference presentations each year.

Whitman Middle School
Wauwatosa, WI

"Our students loved meeting Jeff! Many of our 3rd and 4th graders read Tiger and it was great for them to learn the Kung Fu moves related to each of Jeff’s characters in the book! His presentation was interactive and highly engaging! Our kids are still talking about it."

Robin Lynch, Principal
Oak Trace Elementary, Westfield, IN


Coyote Creek Elementary
San Ramon, CA

"Dear Jeff: Nothing but raves coming in on this side of the fence about your appearance on Friday. You have such a wonderful way of presenting your story. I wish the bookstore had ordered so many more copies of your book because we could have sold them all on site!"

J. Andy Murphy, Event Director
Writer’s Digest WriteStuff Conference


Third Place Books
Seattle, WA

"Jeff Stone gives an enthusiastic and humorous presentation. His personal history is as exciting as his book plots. Jeff’s ability to break down the writing process in terms of examples they can understand empowers students. They leave his workshop eager to try the techniques and ideas he suggests."
