 What Schools Are Saying 

  • Taelor H.

    “Ms. Jones-Scaife was probably my favorite. We push reading so much so to have a real life author/illustrator was super cool. She seemed super nice, and her background was amazing (bike riding). She started to connect with the kids by asking them about author/illustrators and then once she started reading her own books w/ character voices, the kids were hooked. They wanted to know what happened at the end.”
    — 1st Grade Teacher

  • Megan Van Vessem

    "Ms. Sharon gave an engaging presentation to our PreK-3rd graders at Shaw Elementary, reading Kindness, It’s In You and emphasizing the importance of kindness. She encouraged participation with thoughtful questions and welcomed student comments. I highly recommend her for your school!"

    “4th graders at Lake Dallas Elementary were so lucky to have author/illustrator Sharon Jones-Scaife present her books and teach us about writing a story!”

  • Joe Chatham

    “Virtually everyone has a passion for something. Finding that passion and working to make it a vital part of a successful life is a message that Sharon Jones-Scaife presents to students. We were honored to have her read her books and stress the importance of endurance, perseverance and education so that they are not limited in life at Bayles Elementary in Dallas.”
